Printf in Java with variable spaces [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:

print spaces with String.format()

2 answers

I have a problem with printf in java. I would like to define the spaces with a variable.

 String a = "bar";
 String b ="foo";

 System.out.printf("%-10s %s", b, a);

//Output:foo*7spaces*bar

The "10" should be changeable. I hope you know what I mean. Thank you guys!
