Is there a character limit in the type 'Text' Custom Fields in Trello cards?

[Alexandros Galatas]

I have found that there is a limit of 16384 characters for the "Description" of the card, but i want to know if there is also a text limit if I add a type 'Text' Custom Field and put pretty long notes int it. 

Does anyone know the text limit for the "Comments" also?

Hello @Alexandros Galatas 

Yes, there is a character limit for custom text fields, and you can find that limit yourself by:

1. Filling a custom text field with characters until it won't hold any more
2. Copy and paste all that text into a word processor, such as Word
3. Do a character count to find out how many characters are there.

Voila!

I think it's safe to say the limit is  at least the same as description. I put >14000 characters in to a custom text field no problem.

I'm very curious to know why you want to though?
