It would make sense to have the format sent in the number of digits precision user specified. I guess that is what you mean by a %f above (I would have said set the format to output the proper type like 'char *fmt = "%8.4f";', or better yet build it sprintf(fmt, "\%%d\.%df", length, decimal);) That would be a configurable universal fix.
