Problem

Symptoms: Text display is truncated on the right side of the document screen in Text Mode when an extremely small font or wide paper size is used. The cursor continues to move across the space where the text is missing from, and the text is still visible in Reveal Codes. Solutions: This is caused by a limitation of the Display Pitch function. No matter what the font size and/or paper size selections are, characters stop displaying in Text Mode after the 299th character on the line. WP does not actually truncate the text, which is still present in the Reveal Codes beyond that point, but the Text Mode display stops displaying after this point.

In Graphics Mode or Page Mode, the text displays in its entirety (although it is very small). This does not appear to be related to the page position, as it can happen at a position 4" as well as at position 18" (on an extra-wide page).

How/Why:
The number of allowable visible characters was determined by running a macro that counted characters on a line.
