there's no space between 9...Qd7 and move 10. Add a space and it should fix it.
still doesn't seem to work
Also needs a space after 16...Ka7.
Have you considered, I don't know, looking at it yourself and seeing where there are missing spaces, instead of asking other people to do it for you? You would have had your game imported hours ago, and you wouldn't have had to ask people to do something very simple for you that you could do yourself. I think it's pretty rude frankly. Here's the message, in my opinion, that you are sending: "I need to take time to do this boring but very simple thing I want done, but I don't want to do it, so can somebody else use their own time to do it for me?"
To find the errors, I pasted the pgn into Chesspad2, and it told me all the errors.
@Chessty_McBiggins Some people still don't know how to do everything. In today's day and age, I'm still surprised that people need instructions for "cut & paste". It may not be "I don't want to do this boring task", but "I don't know how to do this boring task". I'm guilty of the same thing by providing the answer instead of providing a method of finding the solution.

Not sure if you are trolling or not. From that game it looks like you are trolling. I use chess tempo's PNG viewer and paste it in chunks line by line, if there are errors in PNG.

What is it you are saying the person does not know how to do? Read the text they pasted? You don't have to paste it into a word program to do that, and furthermore unless the person comes here and says that pasting it into a word program is beyond their capabilities, I'm going to assume it is simple enough that they do in fact know how to do it and were just being incredibly lazy.
Lazy isn't even the right word, really. It probably took just as much effort to post this thread and the follow up reply as it would have taken to just solve it themselves. I don't understand the purpose of this. They even acknowledged in the first post that it was probably spacing, so clearly they knew what to do.

I imported this from chess.com. I already added 160+ spaces before starting this forum.
@Chessty_McBiggins I was implying that he didn't know the correct syntax for pgn files. My program doesn't even check for spacing, so I wouldn't have caught this mistake. Even the fact that they knew what to do, asking for help isn't a sign of laziness, but it may have been simple the difficulty with vision, or "blurring" due to concentration on the writing.
As I and @Fourierian did, entering the notation into a program found the mistakes easily, however this may be a "joke", as was mentioned, and your anger should be directed there instead of at the post.
