You didn't understand the manual at all.

"Testing %7.4lfbps" means:
"Testing "   print as is
"%"          escape character, the next string has a special meaning.
"7"          field is 7 chars wide and should have leading whitespace
".4"         4 out of 7 chars should be after the decimal point
             (this leaves only 2 chars before the point: 2+1+4 = 7)
"lf"         the number to print is a long float
"bps"        print as is

To get leading whitespace use "Testing %07.4lfbps"
To left-justify use "Testing %-7.4lfbps"

You cannot have "%7.10lf" because this indicates that you want
10 out of 7 chars after the decimal point.
