Text output in Vector Format shows unexpected spacing after certain characters

[Wonkomaniac]

I generate following diagram:

@startuml
start
:1abcdwabcd<
if (2abcdwabcd) then (3abcdwabcd)
:4abcdwabcd>
else (5abcdwabcd)
:6abcdwabcd|
:7abcdwabcd]
endif
stop
@enduml

With setting VectorGraphics turned On in Word 365. The resulting diagram shows too much spacing after the "w", so it looks like "2abcdw abcd" in the output graphic of the decission node and "3abcdw abcd" / "5abcdw abcd" on the transition lables.
The other texts look ok.
(The Bitmap Output does not have this problem, but I would prefer to use vector graphics in case they need to be scaled later on.)

The generated SVG seems to be ok, only the rendered image in word is faulty.

P.S.: Is there a possible workaround like using emf instead of svg as a vector output?
