how to keep up white spaces between words in iText5

In my case, I read strings from a data base and then i want to make a PDF with itext5.

The string could be like this: I like   oranges and potatoes

If you can see between the words like and oranges there are 3 white spaces.

When i create a paragraph with this text in the resulting PDF i have the next text: I like oranges and potatoes.

The white spaces between like and oranges are lost.

Is it possible to keep up the White spaces?

Thanks!!

If your white space is in left (" hello") , the generated pdf will take that whitespace automatically. for right side ("hello ") replace white space with "\u00a0" .

String string="hello ";
string=string.replace(" ","\u00a0");
