Answer 1

You don't set the width of a cell.

you should set the width of the columns. And you can do that by applying them on the table object:

float[] widths = new float[] { 1f, 2f };
table.SetWidths(widths);

The answer from Neha is to set the width of the table object

int  count=Gridview1.Columns.Count
PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(count);
float[] columnWidths = new float[count];
for (int v = 0; v < count; v++)
{
    if (v == 0) { 
    columnWidths[v] = 10f;
    }
    else if (v == 2)
    {
        columnWidths[v] = 30f;
    }
    else if(v == 3)
    {
        columnWidths[v] = 15f;
    }
    else if(v == 4)
    {
        columnWidths[v] = 18f;
    }
    else if(v == 5|| v == 6|| v == 7)
    {
        columnWidths[v] = 22f;
    }
    else
    {
        columnWidths[v] = 20f;
    }
}

table.SetWidths(columnWidths);

VB:

C#:

int[] intTblWidth = { 12, 10, 26, 10 };

cell.width = 200f; you have to put capital W on width correct is cell.Width = 200f;
