MODERATORS
LaTeX is one of the least likely to have bad alignment, should've went with the tried and true punching bag that is Microsoft word...
A gap in the pdf or actually a gap because you took years to figure it out? Both interpretations are funny.

skill issue
Any stray pixel in a (EDIT: exported) LaTeX document is a confirmed skill issue.
Text rotated 90° clockwise and only occupies the left 1/3 of the page in an MS Word document whose pages are all numbered '2'? Default assumption is "not your fault."
If you're talking about pixels in a LaTeX document that's already a skill issue
Maybe they like TikZ diagrams?
