what had thought spaces problem, did replace replace " " "" , still in there. there else should doing?

in testing can take local pdf , convert string mimic string getting api. can take , convert pdf.

when use string put above cannot work. not sure if list pasting here or not.

here code, maybe can alter use string right api.
