What's the difference between character and word truncation?

Character truncation counts individual characters (including spaces and punctuation). Word truncation counts whole words, which preserves meaning better for text like summaries or previews.

Can I customize the truncation suffix?

Yes, you can replace the default ellipsis (…) with any custom text like "..." or "read more". The suffix is not included in your character/word limit.
