   @hansva 
   Thanks a lot for your comments!
   
   Especially the distinction between "Hop data type"  and "Java data type": is 
there anything "official" and more detailed in the docs about this? Are there 
any important implications / things to consider when developing pipelines?
   
   Apart from that, regarding the inital problem:
   casting/changing as little as possible is of course perfectly reasonable.
   But it was quite a tough time finding out that the different lengths (that 
were never set explictly!) were the reason for the different output in the 
Write to log. Furthermore I found no format available to get Boolean type 
fields printed out the same way.
   Is there some format mask for Booleans available? Would it make sense to 
offer one? Could the problem be solved also differently than by setting 
identical length values?
