Original PDF

We use Docparser to parse the PDFs and Docparser uses Popplerutil render the
text from PDF as text.  You can find out their version by emailing
support at docparser.com

Docparser shows extra spaces and character size changes when the document is
rendered.  While Adobe, Foxit, SodaPDF, xpdftools are not showing the same
issue.

I am attaching two files.

One is the PDF file that should not have any spaces between characters.
If I copy/paste from Adobe, the text reads:
