Squares instead of tabs (Xft)

Hello.

I'm using XftDrawStringUtf8() function to display text. But this
function for some reason displays tabs as squares, instead of drawing
them the usual way (as spacing), which is what I want.

Any way to get Xft to draw them like spacing (ideally, as 4 or 8 space
characters)?
