View looks all good, normal width
But save PDF looks bad, stretches too wide
Is this default theme or custom theme? If it’s custom theme, I’d need to see HTML markup.

Actually wait. Unit column is your custom field on line item. Correct?
Yes, that’s how it was explained to me once before, with a sample code
Custom fields on line items don’t support sizing yet. As far as PDF generator is concerned, both Description and Unit columns behave the same.
Why do you use custom field to capture unit? There is built-in Unit name field on inventory item level. Why not use that?
I’m not using inventory items.
Each order is custom & unique, manufactured to order
OK, in that case using custom field on line item makes sense. I will add ability to control field size on line items. This will solve your issue.
No. You can answer questions like this for yourself by simply looking at the Edit screen for a new or existing custom field under Settings.
the need to control size of custom field line item is essential for most of us who have clear look of their customized invoice presentation. hope it will be available soon… @lubos

I’m removing this topic from ideas category on the basis that this issue is in internal PDF generator which is now obsolete.
There is now new approach which doesn’t have this issue.
