Drop Down List Values Populating with Random Spaces

[DoubleHooks]

Hi All, 

I'm one day into Adobe Sign templates and trying to figure out why the values on this picklist value aren't functioning properly. In the image below you can see that the picklist values are populating but with random spaces (ie "Entr ance" instead of "Entrance"). Besides being pretty ugly it also affects other dependent fields which populate prices and other values. They are only populating when the picklist value appears as it should (ie "Europe Insights survey").

Drop down code: 
{{*BST_es_:signer1:dropdown(options="N/A, Feature bar - bespoke, Feature bar - non bespoke, Cloakroom, Connections Lounge package, Entrance K escalator sponsorship, Entrance K - Internal vinyl window placement, Entrance K - pillar branding, Europe Insights survey, Fixed catering unit A, Fixed catering unit B, Fixed catering unit C, Fixed catering unit D, Global supporting partner - Rise Up, G-meeting room day hire only, Hand sanitizers, Lanyards, Registration, VIP Lunch - Thursday, VIP Lunch - Tuesday, VIP Lunch - Wednesday, Watercoolers, Wi-Fi, Digital bag insert, App, Speakers lounge, External flags") }}

The values are large, and I am wondering if this is causing the spaces. I'd rather not have to re-write all the values as the business provided these product names and they are already in place in other portions of the document.  Are there other things I can test for or look for?

Your tag in principle is fine. I was able to use it as is and get the expected result:

the screenshot is from a desktop machine, but I checked it on mobile and still looking good there.

The issue is with how you have to setup text tags, ie they need to start and finish on the same line. How are you controlling the size of the tag, did you just use a tiny font?

it's better to make use of text tag shortning to control the size of the tag, along with some Word knowledge, see attached word doc.

key here is to add a new section to the main document, so we can increase the pagesize (a3) and orientation to landscape giving you as much space to create this long tag.

fwiw, it's easier to do such long dropdowns using acrobat and a PDF form

This is very helpful, thank you! It seems to be solving the formatting isssues I highlighted above. 

For fields referring to the original field, will I now need to refer to the text tag instead?

So the {{$001}} is just the target placeholder. You stil lrefer to the proper field name in the reference tag, which is BST in this example.

text ta hortening is explained in the text tag reference
