Default A line in and addres is cut in half after merge

I am creating a mailmerge document using Office 2016 desktop. After I complete the merge everything looks fine onscreen, but when I print I see this in the addresss block.



line cut in half.pdf

I copied the whole address block into Notepad to get rid of any formatting, then pasted it into my text box in the merge file. Still the City, State, Zip line is cut in half.

This happens only on that one line, nowhere else in the document, so I don't think it's a line spacing problem.

Any ideas?

Is the text box set to be a fixed height?

I'm not sure. Here's what I see in the text box properties.

With the text box selected right click to display the context menu.
Click Format Shape...
In the Format Shape pane click on the Size button.
Check the Resize shape to fit text option.

Thank you so much! That's what I needed to know. Is there a way to mark this thread as SOLVED? I didn't see it.

There is. If you look at the top line of the thread, to the far right there is an area called Thread Tools. Mark Solved is in there.
