printing - Text Block/Field Block: Truncate text without word wrap

Question

I'm currently creating a label with ZPL II. I have a field with a fixed size. Therefore I'm using the ^TB command. The problem here is, that the text is not truncated at the fixed size. The ^TB command seems only to truncate at a space or special character. The ^FB command seems to have the same behavior.

My first example without spaces is truncated at the right position. The second one is not showing "Word3" but there is enough space like you can see in line 3 of the example.

^XA  ^CI28
^FO45,650^GB1,220,3^FS  
^FO275,650^GB1,220,3^FS 
^FO50,690^A0N,25,25^TBN,225, 25^FDWord1Word2Word3Word4Word5^FS  
^FO50,740^A0N,25,25^TBN,225, 25^FDWord1Word2 Word3Word4 Word5^FS

ZPL Label

Is there a way in ZPL II to truncate the text at the fixed position?
