Hi Curtis

This appears to be a bug.  I just tested this myself with the same result.  Would you file a bug report for this please, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GnuCash

Just to check though, can you include a sample invoice line in the bug report.  Doesn't have to be real data as long as it's a representative sample.
