BUG: Leading Spaces in PDF stripped

Hello
We are currently generating reports in PDF format and leading spaces are now
being stripped from printed reports. This started to happen when when we
applied SP2. Has anyone else encountered this problem and if so how did you
get around it.
Much appreciated,
Kevin Weir
DirectWest PublishersI'm a little surprised no one has had a similar problem. Leading spaces are
definetly stripped from ALL strings when rendering to PDF. This started to
happen after SP2 was installed.
If someone from Microsoft sees this post are you aware this is an actual bug.

I have experienced the same thing, I posted a few oddities after applying
SP2 and I have not received any help. Unfortunatley I don't have a
workaround for this one except to redesign. This is very aggravating as I
had to go in to a number of reports to fix once this SP was applied. It was
the only way I could combine bold font with normal and now that does not work
either.
I will continue my search, if I found I will update this post, please do the
same.

I will certainly let you know if I find a solution.
Now if I could just find link/e-mail address where I could let Microsoft
know about this bug.
