The RTF box can help you here, the only help using RTF will be using a table as Kosala mentioned.

You may use string operations for that: 

int equalPos = 20;
for (int l = 0; l < rtfBox.Lines.Length; l++) {
    int i = rtfBox.lines[i].IndexOf('=');
    int n = equalPos - i;
    if ((i >= 0) && (n > 0)) {
        rtfBox.lines[i] = rtfBox.lines[i].Insert(i, new string(' ', n));
    }
}

Wrote this from head, so please check for errors.

EDIT:
Ok, here's another one:

for (int l = 0; l < rtfBox.Lines.Length; l++) {
    int i = rtfBox.lines[i].IndexOf('=');
    if (i >= 0) {
        rtfBox.lines[i] = rtfBox.lines[i].Insert(i, "\t");
    }
}
rtfBox.SelectAll();
rtfBox.SelectionTabs = new int[] { 100 };  // Find a value big enough!

This is what I would do.(These are manual steps.. :)

1).Open MSWord.

2).Create a table; 2 columns and 5 rows (this is for your text)

3). put the text that you wanted to format in to correct cells of the table

4). Save Word Doc as a rtf file.

5). Open rtf file in notepad(notepad++ is better)

There it is.. Now you can find how it is formatted. Now it should not be hard for you to do it in C#. Good luck.
