Yes, to the limit 2k.

If your customer needs to store some longer text, then use different way. For example text file.

The attributes are not designed for a novel book

Hi @AS_11081239

Too complicated.

I can imagine to develop custom function to edit and show the attribute that the content of the attribute is stored to two separated columns in database or to a blobs.

But you have to also develop a function to save the values to that filed in the database.
