I want to retract this as a bug with podofo. This is a misunderstanding of
the ePdfWriteMode_Compact / ePdfWriteMode_Clean usage as well as a PDF
reader defect. I assumed that ePdfWriteMode_Clean would allow spaces to be
stored in a PDF file and later copy&pasted to something resembling plain
text. The text was being stored in the PDF file properly by podofo. It
was not being read or copied properly from acrobat reader to the
clipboard. It would collapse multiple spaces into just one breaking all
fixed width font line formatting. This happened with all viewers I tried
except for Firefox. Same issue the one described below for itext.
