You're passing a String and a Font to the AddCell() method. That's not going to work. You need the AddCell() method that takes a Phrase object or a PdfPCell object as parameter.

A Phrase is an object that consists of different Chunks, and the different Chunks can have different font sizes. Please read chapter 2 of my book for more info about this object.

Phrase phrase = new Phrase();
phrase.Add(
    new Chunk("Some BOLD text",  new Font(Font.FontFamily.TIMES_ROMAN, 12, Font.BOLD))
);
phrase.Add(new Chunk(", some normal text", new Font()));
table.AddCell(phrase);

A PdfPCell is an object to which you can add different objects, such as Phrases, Paragraphs, Images,...

PdfPCell cell = new PdfPCell();
cell.AddElement(new Paragraph("Hello"));
cell.AddElement(list);
cell.AddElement(image);

In this snippet list is of type List and image is of type Image.

The first snippet uses text mode; the second snippet uses composite mode. Cells behave very differently depending on the mode you use.

This is all explained in the documentation; you can find hundreds of C# examples here.
