Default space between words

Could the space between quick and brown possibly have been a tab
character rather than a space? (Turn on Show Non-Printing Characters,
Ctrl-Shift-8, to check. A space will show up as a dot, a tab as an
arrow.)

When the boss tries to delete the space, it jams the words together like this

The quickbrown fox jumps over the lazy sleeping dog.

The document does not seem to have any special formatting except paragraph
indents.

Has anyone seen this issue and if so, how did you fix it?
Thanks
