Could anyone tell what the cut-off is for the amount of data stored in folder names/file names when using save to disc to side load books?

I'm finding that if my file name is too long, the sequence of folders the file is stores under will have shortened names. For example I should see this...

{#genre}/{author}/{series}/{title} - {summary})

What I actually see is this (using Stephen King's The Dark Tower as an example):

Ste/Watchto/The Dark Tower- first in the series, characters meet, stuff happens, you get the idea summary information

If the summary is too long, the folder names are shortened. I'm having trouble figuring out where the cut-off is so I don't overdo it.
