 If the maximum size of a `VOID*` PCD is not specified in the DSC file, then the
 maximum size is calculated based on the largest size of 1) the string or array
 in the DSC file, 2) the string or array in the INF file and 3) the string or
 array in the DEC file. If the value is a quoted text string, the size of the
 string will be incremented by one to handle string termination. If the quoted
 string is preceded by L, as in `L"This is a string"`, then the size of the string
 will be incremented by two to handle unicode string termination. If the value
-is a byte array, then the size of the byte array is not modified.
+is a byte array, then the size of the byte array is not modified. If the value is
+a single quoted string, as in 'string' or L'string', the size of the string doesn't
+need to include string null termination character.
 
 For example, if the string in the DSC file is `L"DSC Length"`, the INF file has
 `L"Module Length"` and the DEC file declares the default as `L"Length"`, then
 the maximum size that will be allocated for this PCD will be 28 bytes (`
 L"Module Length"` 26 bytes, 2 bytes for null termination character).
