Okay, the data in the test file is somewhat contrived. I was not copying real data from my file, I was trying to find something that demonstrated the bug. After looking through my data, I did find one Description that was long enough without word breaks to cause this; excluding the account with that entry from the report did fix the problem. While I agree with your assessment to downgrade the bug, I would prefer "minor", as it produces a report with missing data. Also, I don't believe this type of data to be that uncommon; I expect that I am not the only one who puts the name of the web site in the Description field for web purchases, and some web sites do have long names. If I haven't convinced you to change this to minor, then I'll defer to your judgement. The behavior that I would like to see is to break inside a long word if that is necessary to fit the report within the page width. > GnuCash does it's best to display your data in the available screen > space.
