Am guessing here, as not real clear what you are talking about, but are you using what they refer to as "Platypus", the "Page Layout and Typography Using Scripts" features of reportlab as described in Chapter 5 onwards of the User Guide. These features allow for automatic line wrapping, concepts of paragraphs etc. If this is used, then a very long line of text should wrap and not be on one line. Other than that suggestion, you might ask your question on the reportlab mailing list, as it would appear to be a question about using reportlab and nothing really to do with mod_python which is going to be merely serving up your PDF document once created.
