使用j-text-utils，您可以打印控制台表格，如：

简单到：

TextTable tt = new TextTable(columnNames, data);                                                         
tt.printTable();

api还允许排序和行编号。。。

因为大多数解决方案都有点过时，我也可以建议asciitable，它已经在maven中提供了( de.vandermeer:asciitable:0.3.2 )可能会产生非常复杂的结构。

特点（异地）：

在规则和内容、对齐方式、格式、填充、边距和框架方面具有一定灵活性的文本表：
根据需要添加多种不同格式的文本（字符串、文本提供程序、呈现提供程序、st、群集），
删除所有多余的空格（制表符、多余空格、回车和换行的组合），
6种不同的文本对齐方式：左对齐、右对齐、居中对齐、左对齐最后一行、右对齐最后一行，
灵活的宽度，为文本设置，并以多种不同的方式计算渲染
左右填充字符（可单独配置）
顶部和底部填充的填充字符（可单独配置）
绘制轴网的几个选项
具有不同样式的规则（由使用的网格主题支持：normal、light、strong、heavy）
框架外的上/下/左/右页边距
字符转换为生成的文本，适用于进一步处理，例如latex和html
而且使用起来仍然很简单：

AsciiTable at = new AsciiTable();

at.addRule();
at.addRow("row 1 col 1", "row 1 col 2");
at.addRule();
at.addRow("row 2 col 1", "row 2 col 2");
at.addRule();

System.out.println(at.render()); // Finally, print the table to standard out.

查看java.util.formatter类。

我创建了一个可以构建高级表视图的项目。如果要打印表格，表格的宽度将有限制。我已经在我自己的一个项目中应用它来获得客户发票打印。下面是打印视图的示例。

这是上面打印视图的代码，您可以在这里找到库（wagu）。

public class Main {
 public static void main(String args[]) {
   String format = "|%1$-10s|%2$-10s|%3$-20s|\n";
   System.out.format(format, "A", "AA", "AAA");
   System.out.format(format, "B", "", "BBBBB");
   System.out.format(format, "C", "CCCCC", "CCCCCCCC");

   String ex[] = { "E", "EEEEEEEEEE", "E" };

   System.out.format(String.format(format, (Object[]) ex));
 }
}

输入的大小不同并不影响输出

使用 System.out.format . 可以这样设置字段长度：

System.out.format("%32s%10d%16s", string1, int1, string2);

这个垫子 string1 , int1 ，和 string2 分别为32、10和16个字符。
有关详细信息，请参阅javadocs java.util.Formatter 有关语法的详细信息( System.out.format 使用 Formatter 内部）。
