Releases and resource text oddities

Hi,

I have basic msi type of installshield project.

From generated releases, I've noticed several resource text related issues with web/cdrom type of releases.

From generated self extracting exe file properties:

General tab:
-description text is cut off. there will shown only first 14 characters of the description.
Version tab:
-product version only contains major.minor. (there is no build number at all).
-Product name is cut off. there is only first 14 characters of the product's name.

What is the cause of this kind of behavior? how to fix? is there going to be hotfix in near future, if there is no fix yet available?

PS: seems the type of release doesn't matter, if the release was cdrom, the same issues were in the exe file in the cdrom release's root directory.

As a workaround I used RTC (resource tuner console) in my build script to make these issues as they should be.

Please see if the hotfix in KB Q113578 resolves the issues.
