Thanks for correction, John. I wrongly understood it and sorry for confusion. Wiki says [1]: "The Width field specifies a minimum number of characters to output, and is typically used to pad fixed-width fields in tabulated output, where the fields would otherwise be smaller, although it does not cause truncation of oversized fields." Thanks, Leo [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printf_format_string#Width_field
