Description:
for file in * doesn't correctly parse files containing spaces in
their filenames. For example file an image of duck.jpg will be interpreted
as 4 files an image of duck.jpg
Yes, it does.
Your problem is (probably, since you didn't include an example) that
you omitted quotes around its expansion, e.g.:
printf '%s\n' $file
That should be:
printf '%s\n' $file
