@sadrasabouri You can start to work on this issue.
The first step is to find the fonts with this problem and list them.

[Sadra Sabouri]

First I write the below scripts to find out fonts which have problems with space parameter:

>>> from art import *
>>> for font_name in FONT_NAMES:
...     if text2art("test", font_name, space=2) == text2art("test", font_name):
...             print(font_name)
... 
block
danc4
nvscript

Then I checked them in text_dic*.py files to find out the problem. It turned out that (' ' - spce) is mapped to ('' - empty string), as it can be seen in from the below script's results:

>>> from art.art_param import FONT_MAP
>>> for font_name, font in FONT_MAP.items():
...     if font[0][' '] == '':
...             print(font_name)
... 
block
danc4
nvscript

So for solving this issue we can fill up the space character's mapping for these fonts {block, danc4, nvscript}.

@sadrasabouri Nice approach 🔥
