The table that we use for all writing tests is read from `daophot.dat`. The daophot reader is aware of the format specifiers in the daophot table and places that formatting in the `column.format` specification. The Ipac writer merely respects that format, so the resulting columns have exactly the same width as in the daophot table. (It looks odd here because in the daophot table some columns have extra width to reach exactly 80 characters per line, and we could thus resize those columns. However, I don't think we should touch an explicitly set column format specification (in this case it was set by the reader) during the writing process.)
