htaccess broken filename with space

I can't figure out how to make filenames with spaces in them correctly named when downloaded. The name gets broken at the first space. eg. the file 

how are you.pdf

is downloaded as

how

Below is my code. I have tried many things and none have worked this far.

RewriteEngine On
##RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?consciousnesscoachingacademy.com [NC]
RewriteRule \.(.*)$ - [NC,F,L]

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^filename=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^download\.php$ %1
RewriteRule (.*) - [E=file:$1]
Header set Content-type "octet-stream"
Header set Content-disposition "attachment; filename=%{file}e" env=file

Try this code:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?consciousnesscoachingacademy.com [NC]
RewriteRule \.(.*)$ - [NC,F,L]

# file download (attachment)
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /download\.php\?filename=(.+)\ HTTP/ [NC]
RewriteRule ^download\.php$ %1? [E=file:%1]

Header set "Content-disposition" "attachment; filename=\"%{REDIRECT_file}e\""
Header set "Content-type" "octet-stream"
