 <dt><strong>Purpose:</strong>
     <dd>Defines the storage mechanism for character strings.
 <dt><strong>Description:</strong>
-    <dd>The method used to store character strings differs with the 
-        programming language: C usually null terminates strings while 
-        Fortran left-justifies and space-pads strings.  
-        <code>H5Tset_strpad</code> defines the storage mechanism for the string.

+        When converting from a longer string to a shorter string,

+        If the short string is <code>H5T_STR_NULLPAD</code> or 
+        <code>H5T_STR_SPACEPAD</code>, then the string is simply truncated. 
+        If the short string is <code>H5T_STR_NULLTERM</code>, it is
+        truncated and a null terminator is appended.  
+        <p>
+        When converting from a shorter string to a longer string,
+        the long string is padded on the end by appending nulls or spaces.
