When creating a label layout with en empty string ('') in the fields to print,
this line is stripped in the PDF export. The same happens with spaces ('   ')
and non printable characters (tab, vtab, etc).

The CSV and XML outputs are working properly and display all strings,
regradless if they are empty, contain spaces or non-printable characters. Only
the PDF output (which is VERY important) is affected.

The reason behind this request -apart from keeping a consistency between the
various export formats- is to be able to enter empty lines in the actual spine
label. This should be fairly easy to fix, and seems to be mostly related to the
PDF creator code.
