Whenever a full-width space is entered in a field, it is counted as one character (it is not shown in the character count found on the bottom right side of the field, but the system counts it as one character)
*Note: All spaces (full-width and half-width) are not supposed to be counted as one character
Fields subject to this error

To users who have trouble saving their documents due to this error
