Extra spaces appear before apostrophes in content

Hi there

I’m using the Newspaper theme. Every time I add content which includes an apostrophe, the apostrophe appears with a space after it.

So what should read:

for our companions, it's often the exact opposite

actually reads

for our companions, it 's often the exact opposite

This happens for all words with apostrophes in them, whether I use a ‘ or a ’ style apostrophe.

If I change from the newspaper theme to another theme, then the extra spacing disappears.

I’ve checked in the MySQL database and there are no extra spaces in there. There are also no extra spaces in the html so it looks as if it may be a css issue?

Really happy with the theme but unless this is solved I will need to move elsewhere.

Thanks in anticipation for your help.
