Note that all spaces have been removed and there is a lot of text displacement.

On further exploration, immediately after PDFtest.pdf is imported it is not possible to select the spaces.
I believe that on PDF export spaces were actually space characters, because if PDFtest.pdf is opened in
PDF-Xchange Viewer it is possible to copy a region of text including spaces, and then paste it into an editor (notepad
or wordpad) and the spaces are pasted as spaces. It looks like, for whatever reason, PDF import is converting space
characters to kerning operations.
