Help filtering and transforming data

I have data in 2 txt files in which I am trying to have Talend sort through a file of data according to the position of data  and then filter the Variable names into being columns in an output file.

 

For example

 

File 1

Position Variable

1- 2 FIPS State code (00 for US record)
4- 6 FIPS county code ( 0 for US or state level records)

8- 15 Estimate of people of all ages in poverty
17- 24 90% confidence interval lower bound of estimate of people of all ages in poverty

 

File 2

42 9 5864 4819
42 11 47405 42354

 

In which the position from file 1 corresponds to the number each digit represents in file 2.

 

Please help
