Google Ads preview
Rendered in your browser · nothing is uploaded
Shows a responsive search ad against its real limits: 30 characters per headline and 90 per description. Anything longer is rejected at upload rather than truncated.
How to use the google ads preview
The thing a preview cannot show you is the combination problem. A responsive search ad takes up to fifteen headlines and four descriptions, and Google assembles them into combinations at serve time, so every headline has to make sense on its own and beside any of the others. Writing them as a sequence produces nonsense when they are shuffled. Preview each one individually against the limit, then read a few of them in pairs. Thirty characters is short enough that an ampersand instead of "and" and numerals instead of spelled-out numbers are both worth doing.
Questions
Thirty per headline, ninety per description, twenty-five for the business name.

Up to fifteen. Each must stand alone, since Google combines them unpredictably.
Only by pinning positions, which reduces the combinations Google can test.
No, and it cannot be. Platforms cut by rendered pixel width, so a title in capitals or wide letters cuts earlier than a character count suggests. Treat the limit as a guide and leave a few characters of margin.
