While this is an ingenious solution – thanks! – it doesn't fit my
needs, alas, since two-digit numbers stick out to the left of the box.
This is exacerbated by the fact that

Yes. Sorry for the sloppy wording.

OK. Next try.
Here are the assumptions.
* Numbers 0, 1, 2, ..., 9 all have a width of 100 units.
* Number 10, however, has a kerning of -50 units between digits 0
and 1, making a total

A longer explanation for my \right-column proposal hasn't arrived.

Please clarify. I see the digit '9' being left-aligned on
the origin and the

The problem at hand is stacking fixed-width single-digit and
two-digit numbers. Single-digit numbers should be left-aligned
for various reasons:
```
9
8
7
```
If there is a two-digit number, it should be right-aligned at the

Nope, this doesn't align properly – see my answer to David's e-mail
