You can use like:

first define field in kanban for usage

<field name="description_field_name"/>

After whenever you want to print this field add like this:

<t t-esc="record.description_field_name[30]"/>

40 is limit of char.

You can set text limit using python functions and string slicing or you can do one thing add one css classs in that field where you display and set height width of that field div and set overflow: hidden;

Thanks and regards
