I need assistance limiting characters on a the_sub_field on output. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

use get_sub_field and substr

// limit to 10 chars
$value = substr(get_sub_field('field_name'), 0, 10);
echo $value;

or you can use wp_trim_words() to limit to a number of words

// limit to 10 words
$value = wp_trim_words(get_sub_field('field_name'), 10);
echo $value;
