Whenever users submit their form with long links* in the text box, it becomes impossible to get usable .pdfs out of the system (they come out at a tiny font size to fit the link on one line). This doesn't work for our purposes--.pdfs are needed and these long links are not going to be unusual because of the way users are copying links from the browser when looking at our catalog. Is there a way to mandate line breaks, edit out or convert to a collapsed link so that the .pdf can still work?

Thank you for contacting us.
I was able to reproduce the PDF generation issue caused by long links. Now it has been escalated to our Development Team.
There is no ETA, but we will let you know as soon as it is fixed.
If the link field is not critical, you might consider hiding it on the form Submissions page, then generate the PDF.
