Issue
When entering an address in PitneyShip Pro or PitneyShip Enterprise, the message "Street must be no longer than 23 characters" appears.
Cause
Resolution
When this error occurs, PitneyShip Pro or PitneyShip Enterprise may also become unresponsive and you may be unable to edit the address or select the back arrow.
If PitneyShip Pro or PitneyShip Enterprise is responsive, edit all lines in the sender and recipient addresses that exceed 23 characters so that they are 23 characters or less, including spaces. If the address cannot be abbreviated, another option is to separate the address to be on different lines.
If PitneyShip Pro r PitneyShip Enterprise is unresponsive, you will need to close and relaunch PitneyShip Pro or PitneyShip Enterprise. If you previously pasted the address in from another program, try typing the abbreviated address into PitneyShip Pro or PitneyShip Enterprise instead of pasting.
