Text running outside of schedule boundary when exporting to PDF

For whatever reason, when I export my drawing set to PDF inevitably some of the schedules end up with text which runs past the boundary of the schedule.

See the attached PDF for reference.

 

This only happens when exporting as a PDF rather than printing as a PDF..

 

Can't figure out why it is doing this. Anyone have experience with this or what might be causing it?  Thanks

There is no option to embed font when exporting to PDF (for now) so if the font doesn't work then you resort to print to pDF is the only way out.

For information, what font is it and what is the width under the text style settings?

Long Windows session?  That could be the problem. Rebooting computer might resolve. Maybe just restarting Revit  will be enough to kick the gremlins out. Start there.

Ah! Found it!  This is what I was remembering from another thread on this Forum:

Maybe it applies here. Dunno. Let us know either way.  .

@waldie.jonathan thats not nice. Have a try using the Reports plugin that is in the Revit app store. It prints long schedules and does not have any of those issues.
