[SOLVED] COLUMN-TOTAL line wraps onto 2 lines in PDF, but not in HTML or Excel

I have a report with PDF as one output option. The last field on the right of the report is the one numeric column being totaled. The first column is an A12 field. To total the numeric column, the sysntax, ON TABLE COLUMN-TOTAL AS 'TOTAL' is used.

The problem is in PDF this grand total line is wrapping onto 2 lines: The word TOTAL is one one line and the numeric value is on the line below it.

This does not happen in Excel or HTML.

How do I fix this?

Thank you.

Thanks, Francis. That post helped me solve the problem. This was a multi-verb request with the first verb set containing 3 NOPRINTed COMPUTEd fields to create a value for the report heading.

When I redid the logic to eliminate the multi-verb approach, that solved the problem.

And thank you, too, Prarie. That article is very helpful!
