Output will be aligned "properly" in your JTextArea only if you use a mono-spaced font. "Andale Mono 14" for example would do the trick.

Also, in order to make your life easier and avoid the padding hell, use String.format with it's syntax.
```
String format = "%1$5s %2$-40s %3$-20s";
String someLine;
while (whatEver...) {
   ... 
   someLine = String.format(format, aNum, aName, aDate);
   jTextArea1.append(someLine + "\n");
}
```

Use a JTable instead (for what is apparently tabular information). See How To Use Tables for more details & working examples.

You can also change the font of the JTextArea if it is allowed in your problem
```
textArea.setFont(new Font("monospaced", Font.PLAIN, 12));
```

You may use HTML with swing component or use JEditorPane.

JLabel jt=new JLabel();
jt.setText("<html>
            <table border='1'>
               <tr><th>No</th><th>Name</th></tr>
               <tr><td>1</td><td>Mr.A</td></tr></table></html>");
