I am using estpost and esttab commands to create frequency distribution tables. However, the labels of my categorical variables are too long and Stata crops the variable labels.
sysuse auto, clear
label define longlabel 0 "domestic car domestic car domestic car domestic car domestic car" ///
1 "foreign car foreign car foreign car foreign car foreign car"
label values foreign longlabel
estpost tabulate foreign
esttab ., cells("b") eqlabels(`e(eqlabels)') varlabels(`e(labels)') label
---------------------------------
(1)
Car type
b
---------------------------------
domestic car domes~t 52
foreign car foreig~ 22
Total 74
---------------------------------
Observations 74
---------------------------------
Is there a way to force Stata to save the full labels?

You can use option noabbrev
to prevent truncation, or varwidth(#)
to set the width of the first column.
