Morphology

spaceless = space (transparent) = space + less

Literal combination 'space' + '-less' yields 'without spaces', which directly matches the sense 'written with no spaces between words'.

Etymology

The word spaceless comes from space and -less ('without'), and it can mean writing with no spaces between words. So a spaceless line of text has its words run together and is hard to read.
