In section 7.19.6.1 of C99 and section 7.21.6.1 of C11 : "As noted above, a field width, or precision, or both, may be indicated by an asterisk. In this case, an int argument supplies the field width or precision. The arguments specifying field width, or precision, or both, shall appear (in that order) before the argument (if any) to be converted. A negative field width argument is taken as a - flag followed by a positive field width. A negative precision argument is taken as if the precision were omitted." followed by : "The flag characters and their meanings are: - The result of the conversion is left-justified within the field. (It is right-justified if this flag is not specified.)"
