Maintain similar image size in PDF using itextsharp

Question

i'm using itextsharp to bring my picture over to the pdf file. I uses chunk. However when i uses the chunk new line, my image changes it size despite me putting the same scaletofit.

protected void btnPDF_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

        var doc1 = new Document();
        var filename = "MyTestPDF" + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddHHmmssfff") + ".pdf";
        var output = new FileStream(Path.Combine("C:\\Users\\apr13mpsip\\Downloads", filename), FileMode.Create);
        iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc1, output);
        doc1.Open();


        PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(1);

        table.TotalWidth = 585f;
        table.LockedWidth = true;


        PdfPTable table2 = new PdfPTable(1);
        table2.TotalWidth = 585f;
        table2.LockedWidth = true;

        iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfPCell imgCell1 = new iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfPCell();

        var logo = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(Server.MapPath("~/image/logo.jpg"));
        doc1.Add(logo);

        var titleFont = FontFactory.GetFont("Arial", 15, Font.BOLD);
        doc1.Add(new Paragraph("Official Report. Member Report ID : " + DDLCase.SelectedValue, titleFont));

        var normalFont = FontFactory.GetFont(FontFactory.HELVETICA, 14, Font.BOLD);
        var phrase = new Phrase();
        var phrase2 = new Phrase();

I completely forgot about this question, but I'll answer it now for further reference. iTextSharp resizes images automatically (which is what you'd want in most cases), but you can avoid this by setting ScaleToFitHeight = false to each image.

phrase2.Add(new Chunk("1.", normalFont));
Byte[] bytes1 = (Byte[])dr[10];
iTextSharp.text.Image image1 = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(bytes1);
image1.ScaleToFit(750f, 750f);
//set scale to fit height = false
image1.ScaleToFitHeight = false;
Chunk imageChunk1 = new Chunk(image1, 0, -30);
phrase2.Add(imageChunk1);
