iTextSharp table width 100% of page

Viewed 68284

I'm trying to add a table to a document using iTextSharp. Here is an example:

Document document = new Document(PageSize.LETTER,72, 72, 72, 72);
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, new FileStream("C:\\test.pdf", FileMode.Create));

document.Open();
Table table = new Table ( 2, 1 );
table.Width = document.RightMargin - document.LeftMargin;

// Cell placeholder
Cell cell = new Cell ( new Paragraph ( "Some Text" ) );
table.AddCell ( cell );
cell = new Cell ( new Paragraph ( "More Text" ) );
table.AddCell ( cell );
document.Add ( table );
document.Close ( );

I'm setting the width of the table so that it should extend the margin of the page. But when the pdf is created the table only takes about 80% of the space between the margin's. Am I doing something incorrectly here?

The WidthPercentage property is no longer available in iText7. Use the following instead

table.SetWidth(new UnitValue(UnitValue.PERCENT, 100));

In Java table.setWidthPercentage(100); Works in 5.5.8 version

In c# for itext7

Table details = new Table(4, false).UseAllAvailableWidth();
table.setWidthPercentage(100f);

will work
