Space on text disapear
Windows 10 OS
Adobe Illustrator (desktop) all updated (27.2)
When i use text (type tool), for a single line or a text box, the spaces between the words disapear as i type it. I tried different fonts, different idioms on the text, tried check and uncheck hyphenization and always get the same result.
Is that a configuration ussue that im not aware of? or is it a bug?
The problem got solved by opening the Justification dialog and reapplying the existing values. This is still a bug though, please vote if you meet the same problem.

Thank you @Egor, its the same here, fixed itself.
I got that file from a printing company, its like a "model" to follow for a print job, and it came like that. I have no idea why this happen, or the values that were there before.
But thank you for helping! -
I see what is the problem, and it is a bug, I believe.
For some reason justification options for these specific area type objects were modified. Open the Justification dialog form the Paragraph panel’s fly out menu and check the 'Desired' value for Word Spacing. It is the same as Minimal, 80%.
Normally it is fine and should not lead to behavior like you are getting... But for some funny reason, here it leads to Ai treating both as zero — this is my guess.
You don’t have to change these values even and just close the dialog as is — but it magically fixes the justification altogether.
Does it behave the same for you?
Do you have any additional info on how these values come to be? -

I was checking, this is happening only on this file. If i make the text on other file, i can copy it, paste on this file and it works normal, can even edit the text that i pasted. But if i start a new text on the file it keeps the bug.
I also tried saving and reloading, and saving on diferent location and reloading, nothing changed.
No idea what happen here, but since i can copy from another document, i can continue with the job. But still, got curious about it.
Im attaching the illustrator file here.
