Currently, the page headers are set up as follows:

  * The product name (as a variable) is placed towards the gutter.
  * The manual chapter title is keyed in and manually spaced (via the
    spacebar) at the page outer edge.

Simple, elegant,

Yuk!

I second the suggestions of others, to use right-aligned tabs. My own running headers include a variable, ChapterShortTitle, that contains either the full text of a short chapter title or some sensible abbreviation of a long title, so that my [Heading1] or [Heading2] variables have lots of room at the other end of the line. Since you are planning to put your product name variable where I have a CahpterShortTitle, you may find you need to choose a shortened version of the product name to accomplish the same roominess.

Best,
