When does this happen?

IF CharacterTextSplitter is used with chunk_size and chunk_overlap parameters expecting them to enforce chunk sizes.

How others solved it

THEN Replace CharacterTextSplitter with RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter, which actually respects chunk_size and chunk_overlap. Alternatively, update documentation to clarify that CharacterTextSplitter ignores those parameters.

from langchain.text_splitter import RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter
splitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=30, chunk_overlap=10)
chunks = splitter.split_documents(docs)
