I have got the follwing template:

The following output is generated by this template for example:
1.1.1.1.1 Headline of the text
Now to the problem:
When the number is too long the pdf generator (Antennahouse) breaks the line
As it is supposed to ... the edges of the label and body are set, not
flexible to the size of the content.
- but i don't want to size the number column bigger because in most cases 20
mm between number and headline are enough! So is there a way to size the
space between number column and headline dynamically when the number text is
too long???
Or what would you suggest for this problem?
Using a side float for the item label and a regular block for the item
body, but not use the list construct. You can influence the width of the
side float, which impacts on the width of the item body.
I hope this helps.
