Given you are already using itextsharp, you should start from here: Chapter 1: Hello HTML to PDF[^]
With itext, it would be as simple as:

public void createPdf(string html, string dest)
{
	HtmlConverter.ConvertToPdf(html, new FileStream(dest, FileMode.Create));
}

In case you are using pdfHTML. (An iText 7 add-on for Java and C#), a simple example for converting HTML to PDF using iText in C# would be:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    using (FileStream htmlSource = File.Open("input.html", FileMode.Open))
    using (FileStream pdfDest = File.Open("output.pdf", FileMode.Create))
    {
        ConverterProperties converterProperties = new ConverterProperties();
        HtmlConverter.ConvertToPdf(htmlSource, pdfDest, converterProperties);
    }
}
