Inserting $ into formatted float java

Question

I'm trying format a float to have a dollar sign in front of the number. Currently I'm trying to get it to print 150 spaces from the left side.

System.out.printf("%150.2f", orderTotal);

This is what I'm using but I can't figure out where to put the $ I guess I could make the entire thing into a String, but I was wondering if there is a way to do what I'm looking for?

Answer 1

How about

System.out.printf("%150s", String.format ("$%.2f", orderTotal));

Answer 2

System.out.printf("%150s$%.2f", "", orderTotal);
