If there is insufficient space in front of the decimal point to display the
number entered, it is automatically extended. If the specified number of
digits is larger than the number to be engraved, the output format is au‐
tomatically filled with the appropriate number of leading and trailing ze‐
roes.
Instead of the decimal point you can also use a blank.
Instead of _VAR_NUM you can use any other numerical variable (e.g.
R0).
