Why are words displaying with an extra space in Confluence?

[Mack Basham]

For the past few weeks, our team has noticed that words, when they appear across a line break, display with one letter widowed/orphaned on the previous or subsequent line. In Edit mode, the word appears as intact. 

This issue sometimes disappears by itself, or after a user action (e.g., refreshing page, adjusting the zoom of their browser). Sometimes it reoccurs. How do we resolve this issue?

Welcome to the Atlassian Community @Mack Basham !

Are you seeing this same behavior on a different browsers?

Hi @Tinker Fadoua

Thanks for the warm welcome! Unfortunately there's no easy way for me to validate if this issue is endemic to one browser. My organization only allows the use of Chrome, where we've seen this behavior across pages and across various machines.

I understand if that limits our options for troubleshooting. I just thought I'd raise the question because it has been cropping up with increasing frequency. 

Thanks for your help,

Let me request Atlassian's assistance.

Thank you for your patience!

All the best,
