John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-1807:
-------------------------------------
You can't assume that a tab is 8 spaces, it could be any number.

> When using the TextToPDF utility on a text file that has spaces in the front
> for formatting purposes, the leading spaces on the line are being stripped
> causing the report to no longer looks like it did in the PDF.
> Was this the intended result? Is there a way to turn off the stripping of
> the spaces? If not, can it be added?
