Description

When you use languages like Hindi or Marathi (Devanagari script), the space between the date, time, and headline is less. This causes the headline to overlap with the date and time.

To reproduce the issue you described, follow these steps:

  1. Enter a date and time in a cell. (column A-H)
  2. Enter "महाशिवरात्री" in the headline column (column J).

After completing these steps, you should observe that the headline overlaps with the date and time, particularly in languages like Hindi or Marathi using the Devanagari script.
