Hello Daniel
Concerning the error, please update asdocx with

asdocx_update

and it should fix the error.

To solve the formating issue, please use tzok option with format(%20.3f) or any other valid Stata format. See the following example

sysuse auto
replace price = price * 1000000
asdocx ttest price if make != "Toyota Corona", label abb(.)  save(test) format(%20.3f) replace tzok
