hello Lisa!
i have been utilizing a rule that counts the number of characters in a
line and will break it according to that. its a bit time consuming to
count all the characters and figure it all out but it definately works.
here is the rule i've used. you just have to put your variable field names
in and change the character count to suit your needs. this particluar one
accounts for a few different scenarios.
also make sure that hyphenation option is shut off. it will interfer w/
this rule and your desired results.
i hope this helps!!
