Below is a sample of how a typical fixed width text file looks like. Your sample file appears to be a text file that has been calibrated to print like an invoice or similar document. Aside from the multi line header and column headings you then have multi line values and totals with dashes which break the data patterns. You can't really expect Dataiku to understand this format. You will need to write custom Python code to load this file.
