I am using itextsharp to dynamically write to pdf. I am creating a table in a pdf document that contains the values ​​from the database. Can someone tell me how to change the font size of the values ​​in the table.

Try the following:

Font fontH1 = new Font(Currier, 16, Font.NORMAL);

PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(1);

table.AddCell(new PdfPCell(new Phrase(yourDatabaseValue,fontH1)));

@Pabloker I'm not sure, but I get an error while using your solution. I cannot decide which font to use ( com.itextpdf.text.Font or com.lowagie.text.Font or java.awt.Font or org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.Font ). Whatever I use, when I try to put it in a cell, it gives an error that such a constructor does not exist. Sorry, but I'm new to iText.

BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(
                        BaseFont.TIMES_ROMAN,
                        BaseFont.CP1252,
                        BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
                Font font = new Font(bf, 12);
                PdfPCell pdfCell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(sCellVal,font));

, com.itextpdf.text.Font, basefont com.itextpdf.text.pdf.BaseFont .

Should I change the font size using the Font object that was passed when the text was created?

Try setting the font to PdfPTable.DefaultCell property

Example:

pdfTable.DefaultCell.Phrase = new Phrase() { Font = fontNormal };

I already answered this before: Set the font for all text from Pdfptable using Itextsharp
