I was trying to look up whether there was a way for the character sheet printouts to not cut off the text of a feat or ability after 3 lines, and I found this forum post from 7 years ago:

As best as I can tell, that option wasn't implemented after all...? Am I just missing where it is somewhere? Any special ability other than the most basic abilities tends to be missing a large chunk of its text in my experience.

Print the dossier for "Ability and Descriptions". Not near HL but that is pretty close to the name.

In other words you have multiple options for sheets called dossiers when you print. The normal character sheet cuts off after 3 lines but the other one prints the full text.

I just took a look at my 12th level fighter. His Weapon Training (Pole Arms) +4 (Ex) has 10 printed lines of text (4 paragraphs) and another section with 8 paragraphs and 17 lines when printed out.

Ajonos - as we talked it over, we decided that printing full descriptions in the narrow columns available on the printout wasn't very useful, and the extra space required for those descriptions pushed important information to later and later pages, which is why we decided to go with the appendix option instead.

You might look into the Ancient One's output format as it has everything.

Ah, thank you, I didn't see that. I'll just turn off the 3 line descriptions and print those then.
