HTML Pre tag is not displaying full line

I am using <pre> tag in my html page but it not displaying the full line. What I wanted to display is the hwole two below lines: 

    Hello Wish you all the best. This is just a testing of multiline as it is cutting the print work order.Multi formatting within email notifications and work order comments/notes
    End Line. Last Comment.

But it is only displaying

 <pre>
    Hello Wish you all the best. This is just a testing of multiline as 
    End Line. Last Comment.
    </pre>

Does the pre tag has fixed widht or something? Any suggestions will be welcomed.

You would need an overflow for the hidden stuff to show up in case the overflow was hidden. This will add a scrollbar.

pre {
    overflow: auto;
}

Or you would need to wrap the pre tag if scrolling is not an option. For that use 

pre {
    white-space: pre-wrap;
}

Now the line will wrap and show in the next line while still maintaining the white spaces.

Here's the code you gave, wrapped in a pre tag. Looks fine from my house.
