Give me some space
I'm creating a PB of Oecumenius' commentary on the Apocalypse which, naturally, has some Greek. I'm encountering a problem with one passage. I enter
Also note that in the very next verse 7 in Jude πυρος αἰωνίου is the expression for ‘everlasting’ or ‘age-long.’
but when it compiles I get
Also note that in the very next verse 7 in Jude
Even if I introduce extra spaces in between πυρος and αἰωνίου, they still get jammed together.
EDIT: Once again the text has gotten jumbled. I have previously tried without success to straighten out such occurences. Please simply read with some understanding.

Hi George - strange!
I have just taken the text in your string and compiled into a blank document.
When I compile it, it works correctly as below:
Is it possible that something around it is causing this?
Try just pointing the single string into a new document and see what you get

That makes it even more frustrating. I tried the sentence by itself without your success. I then deleted my PB, saved my docx file under a different name, renamed the file to its previous name, and likewise was not successful. Perhaps I wasn't holding my mouth right when I did it. [:S]

This almost makes it appear to be a problem with my computer. If, however, that is the case then why does it only happen here (and consistently here)?

Hand entered.
I think I've solved the problem. I entered something called a "punctuation space" (U+2008) which seems to have solved the problem.

It's a workaround. I have to do something like that to prevent a space being truncated but it is acknowledged as a bug.

I can accept that it's a bug, but the question remains as to why it's a bug on my computer but works on Graham's.
