Document doc = new Document(iTextSharp.text.PageSize.A4);
            System.IO.FileStream file = new System.IO.FileStream(Server.MapPath("~/PDF/PdfSample") + DateTime.Now.ToString("ddMMyyHHmmss") + ".pdf",System.IO.FileMode.OpenOrCreate);
            PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, file);
           
            doc.Open();
            PdfPTable tab = new PdfPTable(3);
            PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase("Header",
                                new Font(Font.FontFamily.HELVETICA, 24F)));
            cell.Colspan = 3;
            cell.HorizontalAlignment = 1; //0=Left, 1=Centre, 2=Right
            //Style
            cell.BorderColor = new BaseColor(System.Drawing.Color.Red);
            cell.Border = Rectangle.BOTTOM_BORDER; // | Rectangle.TOP_BORDER;
            cell.BorderWidthBottom = 3f;
            tab.AddCell(cell);
            //row 1
            tab.AddCell("R1C1");
            tab.AddCell("R1C2");
            tab.AddCell("R1C3");

            tab.AddCell("R2C3");
            cell = new PdfPCell();
            cell.Colspan = 3;
            iTextSharp.text.List pdfList = new List(List.UNORDERED);
            pdfList.Add(new iTextSharp.text.ListItem(new Phrase("Unorder List 1")));
            pdfList.Add("Unorder List 2");
            pdfList.Add("Unorder List 3");
            pdfList.Add("Unorder List 4");
            cell.AddElement(pdfList);
            tab.AddCell(cell);
            doc.Add(tab);
            doc.Close();
            file.Close();
