This is for XSLT 1.0:

<xsl:variable name="spaces35" select="'                                   '"/>

<xsl:variable name="test" select="'Pad this'"/>

<!-- Do this is the you want to padr and the max number of spaces you want is 35.  -->  
<xsl:variable name="padr35" select="substring(concat($test, $spaces35), 1, 35)"/>

<!-- This is padding right 35 but the final string length can be more than 35, if the input string is longer than 35.  -->
<xsl:variable name="PaddingR35" select="concat($test, substring($spaces35, 1, 35 - string-length($test)))"/>
