assuming it follows printf syntax:

  "%60s" makes it take at least 60 characers (right justified).
  "%-60s" makes it take at least 60 characers (left justified).
  "%60.60s" makes it take exactly 60 characters (right justified or truncated).
  "%-60.60s" makes it take exactly 60 characters (left justified or truncated).

so try "%60.60s".
