Hi,
I can confirm that I have encountered the 'scattered words' bug myself now by using your example image. I believe that this happens because the font is very big and has fairly wide spaces between characters. I believe this issue already existed in 0.4.7 but was masked by the 0.4.7 text line merging algorithm. I will look at it more closely and get it fixed for 0.4.9
Until then, I suggest making your game's window smaller, or switch back to 0.4.7 or use Tesseract instead.
Thank you!
