    Problem Symptoms:
    Spine label for certain call numbers has a number, which should be on the same line as the letter which it is associated with on a separate line. See example in Additional Information below.

    Cause:
    he "77" is on a separate line because there's a space between the B and the 77. Space triggers a new line.

    Resolution:
    Eliminate the space; make it "B77". (Note: this may be unacceptable because it may cause the number to sort incorrectly.)

    Additional Information

    Example. The label looks like this: CYAC Y Z 77 P5 when it should look like this: CYAC Y Z 77 P5
