The width specification specifies the number of bytes, not screen columns.
Aside, the narrow stream functions have no idea what the encoding is. It's a
sequence of bytes and if two bytes take only one column that's simply not
known. There is nothing which can be done at this level.
If you want aligned output in all cases you have to do the legwork yourself.
