If the printout is actually "100 ft30.48 m" it probably means that you have
javascript turned off, or that something is wrong with the scripts served.
I use this  css hack to serve something slightly more readable to non js
users:


.client-nojs .smwttcontent {

   1. font-size: .7em;

}

.client-nojs .smwttcontent:before {

   1. content: " (";

}
.client-nojs .smwttcontent:after {

   1. content: ")";

}
