= SUMMARY =

When any type of merge is performed (Print Labels and Print Form Letters), any field whose contents extend beyond the margin is truncated at the margin. This is most common when fields are near the maximum length of 255 characters in the Works Database.

A workaround is to format the field placeholder, in the Works Word Processor file, for a smaller font size, or to increase the margin settings.
