How would you make each line a certain amount of characters?

I have to create a text formatter and the first part is that I have to make each line of each string from a text file 60 characters by default. How would I go about doing that?
Here is my code so far.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <cctype> //isspace,
#include <cstdio> //
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char * argv[])
{
string line;
if (argc != 2)
{
cout << "There must be 2 arguments to run program correctly.\n" ;
return -1;
}
ifstream infile(argv[1]); //open file
if (infile.fail()) //if file cannot be opened, end program.
{
cout << "Error opening file.\n" ;
return -1;
}
else //else, start text formatter
{
while (getline(infile,line))
{
cout << line << endl;
}
}
return 0;
}
