You can use PDFPtable for table formatting

I am posting here my code which display pdf.
I m using struts 1.2 this method generate pdf.
I have used iText jar

public ActionForward print(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
                HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) 
                  throws IOException, ServletException {
	 
	 try{
 /** set content type as PDF */

		 response.setContentType("application/pdf");
 /** create Object Of document */

		 Document document = new Document(PageSize.FLSE);
		 /** set margin of page */
		document.setMargins(1.25F,0.75F, 5F,0.75F);

 ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
		 
		 PdfWriter pdfWriter=PdfWriter.getInstance(document, baos);

 document.open();

 /** Table For header address */

		 PdfPTable headerTable =new PdfPTable(3);
		 headerTable.setWidthPercentage(91);

		 /** Add company Address*/ 

		 /** First Cell  For address*/

		 PdfPCell headerCell=new PdfPCell();
		 headerCell.addElement(new Paragraph("My comapany"));

		 /** add cell to headerTable*/

		 headerTable.addCell(headerCell);


		 /** Second cell For CompanyLogo */

		 headerCell=new PdfPCell();
		 /** get context object */

		 ServletContext context=request.getSession().getServletContext();
		 /** get Real  Path of image */ 

		 String path=context.getRealPath(login.getPath());
		 /** set image to cell*/

		 Image img= Image.getInstance(path);
		 headerCell.setImage(img);

		 /** add cell to headerTable*/

		 headerTable.addCell(headerCell);

		 /** Third cell for lable of document **/

		 headerCell=new PdfPCell();
		String allLedger="ALL LEDGER";
		headerCell.addElement(new Paragraph(allLedger+"\n"
			 +"From Date:"+session.getAttribute("firstDate")+"\nTo Date:"+session.getAttribute("lastDate")
			 ,new Font(Font.TIMES_ROMAN, 10f, Font.BOLD, Color.black )));
		
		 /** add cell to headerTable*/
		
		headerTable.addCell(headerCell);

 /** add table to document */
	 
	 document.add(headerTable);
 document.close();
	 /** Don't know why??*/
	 response.setContentLength(baos.size());
	 /** comment it if u don't want to download pdf*/
	//response.addHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"ledgers.pdf\"");
	
	 /** get out put Stream*/
	 out = response.getOutputStream();
	 /** write to--- Don't know*/
	 baos.writeTo(out);
	/** Clear OutputStream*/
	 out.flush();
	 out.close();
	   
	 	
	 }catch (Exception e) {
		System.err.println("exception in print=="+e.getMessage());
	}
	       
        	  return mapping.findForward("printJsp55");
        }

It generate pdf whic u can use to print.
you can add your data to PdfPTable.
This is the best way to generate pdf.
