            Bug ID: 364964
           Summary: search function does not recognize spaces within a
                    word
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: michiballing at googlemail.com

When using the search function and typing "example" it will find "example",
but it will not find "e x a m p l e".
Many OCR software do recognize words written in capital letters as words with
spaces.
Or some just do mistakes.
It would be great if the search function also considers spaces within a word.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use a document with spaces within a word e.g. "ex ample"
2. try to search for "example" by using the search function (Ctrl+F)
3. it will not find the word

Actual Results:  
it will not find the word

Expected Results:  
it should find the word

Adobe Reader for example does find words with spaces within it.
Thanks
