I believe spaces are OK because I found this geospatial PDF 
http://www.workoutdork.com/misc/gm.pdf from 
http://www.bvcog.org/wp-content/themes/cog/GIS/maps/Geospatial-Guide.pdf
and the model tree does contain names with spaces. Perhaps GDAL writes the
spaces in a somehow wrong way. I agree that the reader should not die. I will
make some small bad behaving PDF and try to send it to Adobe so they can
research it.
