I converted a Word document to a regular PDF. When I tried to convert to a PDF/X-1a, it did it, BUT there were strange spaces in the text that did not exist in the original PDF. For instance, "Census" looked like "C ensus" or "daughters" like "d aughters". I had to go through the entire document at least 6 times to find all the spaces (some were more obvious than others). This made me lose many hours of work time an made me miss the deadline for this project. What causes this? The PDF/X file is the required file for self-publishing. I simply cannot waste hours and hours fixing manuscripts. Can you help?
