title: Jasper Reports - align dynamic text fields and their labels horizontally
body: <p>I'm using Jasper report 5.2, iReport 5.2 and exporting the report in RTF and PDF formats.</p>
  
  <p>In my report I want to add few text fields along with their (static text)labels aligned horizontally like </p>
  
  <pre><code>         Name:  $F{name}
            Age:  $F{age}
  Date of Birth:  $F{dateOfBirth}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I'm unable to align them. This is what I tried</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><strong>Position Type:</strong> float (for all static text and fields)</li>
  <li><strong>Stretch Type:</strong> no stretch (for all static text and fields)</li>
  <li><strong>Stretch With Overflow:</strong> True (for all dynamic text fields)</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>The image shows what I get and what I want.
  Moreover, my text field's content is dynamic i.e. content size could vary.

  <p>I've read many forums but could not find a solution, please suggest.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
