U+0009 is a tab character. And it depends if the used font supports it or not. In this case, our font from our extension does not have it.

However what could be done is to replace tabs with whitespaces in the license texts.
This is also the workaround one can apply.

If tabs are to replaced then this needs to be done in Antenna. What are your opinions on this?
