Unhappy limit of the number of characters in the title ??

I have some books named like: "Titleofthebook - First edition - tome 00" but when I look at the file in the caliber folders, they appear like this: "Titleofthebook - first edition - Tome"... I think the title of the file is too "long", has anyone ever had this problem ?

Yes but I don't think of it as a problem. Stop looking in the calibre library since the file name in the library means nothing and poking around with the OS tools can and will cause issues when your files no longer match the database. When you look in the calibre GUI or when you send to device or save to disk, you should be seeing the original title assuming your column widths are wide enough and you aren't running into path length limits.
