Solution 1

You are creating a table with two columns, so the data will fill the cells left to right and then top to bottom. So you just need to change the order in which you add the data.

PdfPTable pt = new PdfPTable(2); 2=1st column + 2nd column //Create a table and fix columns

=> then after add a cell by using table key "pt"
****Note : the creating of cells jumps over to its own position by based on fixing coloumns
pt.Addcell("cell1-row1") 1st column
pt.Addcell("cell2-row1") 2nd column
pt.Addcell("Cell3-row2") 1st column
pt.Addcell("Cell4-row2") 2nd column
