Customer orders in admin area: Why do orders reformat? Text is small, Margins are off

[gachogavacho]

Hi everyone!

Did an upgrade 1.38a to 1.5.3 this weekend via FTP after having 1.38a for about 6 years.
I have These known addons:
EZ Pages Meta addon
Paypal express
Sales Reports

I have a weird problem where orders placed that contain customer notes with the product (typically about 2 sentences) is causing the text to reformat very small and also the sentence runs off the right margin and is not printed with the order.

I can't find any info on what I might change in admin settings or php. It's very odd that more text would cause the size to change. Any suggestions? I'm attaching pictures of the print, and then screen shot of my admin area for the same order

I think I need to make some changes in a Stylesheet.

Is there a stylesheet that controls the way an order looks? Can anyone name it for me? I'm using "inspect page" in google chrome to try and find what element is causing the page layout to not wrap text for input by customers.

In your stylesheet file:
/your_secret_admin/includes/stylesheet.css

you will find:

.smallText{
font-size:9px;
}

You could change that size there ...

Ajeh,

Thank you very much for your input. But the text is only small because it appears the browser (through css or I have no idea) is trying to fit all of the text on the page to print it. In attempting to do so, it makes the text as small as it will get and when there isn't enough room.. it runs off the page as seen in the pictures i've attached.the text doesn't line wrap. If the text would wrap, I wouldn't be on Odesk right now trying to find a developer lol. If I find someone to fix this for me, i'll ask them what the problem was and post back here in case anyone has this issue in the future. Any other ideas?

So I ended up hiring a developer, great guy. Joe Didomenico from Embryodesign.com

The file updated is: MYADMINFOLDER/orders.php Look around line 570. It was a <nobr> tag that put al of the text on a single line. If anyone else has this problem, removing that should take care of it!

// edit removing <nobr> tag below to make the text wrap on order pages

          echo '<br /><small>&nbsp;<i> - ' . $order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['option'] . ': ' . nl2br(zen_output_string_protected($order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['value']));
          if ($order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['price'] != '0') echo ' (' . $order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['prefix'] . $currencies->format($order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['price'] * $order->products[$i]['qty'], true, $order->info['currency'], $order->info['currency_value']) . ')';
          if ($order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['product_attribute_is_free'] == '1' and $order->products[$i]['product_is_free'] == '1') echo TEXT_INFO_ATTRIBUTE_FREE;
          echo '</i></small>';
