I don't know whether there is formality that is followed, but in practice people use no distinction, spaces (or some automatic distance in font grouping numbers) or dots/commas (the other character that has been used for radix).

One of the reasons I prefer to reduce it (at least for my own purposes) to printing text, not parsing files.
