Here I am using iText 7 for generations of pdf. I have set table width 100% using table.setWidthPercent(100) and i want fixed column width which is in percentage.

I set column width like below

 float columnWidth[] = {33,34,33};
 Table table = new Table(columnWidth);

but it's not percentage when we execute it will gives 3 column with this relative width but this one is break when we give left margin to last cell.

Every Cell left,right margin is affecting column width I want fixed size of column in percentage

Here is my whole code and output image.

        String pdfPath = "first.pdf";
        PdfWriter pdfWriter = new PdfWriter(pdfPath);
        PdfDocument pdfDocument = new PdfDocument(pdfWriter);
        Document document = new Document(pdfDocument);
        pdfDocument.setDefaultPageSize(PageSize.A4);
        document.setMargins(20,20,20,20);

        float columnWidth[] = {33,34,33};
        Table table = new Table(columnWidth);
        table.setWidthPercent(100);
        table.addCell(new Cell().add("First").setFontSize(7).setMargins(0,0,0,0));
        table.addCell(new Cell().add("Second").setFontSize(7).setMargins(0,0,0,0));
        table.addCell(new Cell().add("Third").setFontSize(7).setMargins(0,0,0,50));
        document.add(table);
        document.close();
        System.out.println("pdf created");

This one is output of above code:

Instead of giving float value directly

  float columnWidth[] = {33,34,33};
  Table table = new Table(columnWidth);

UnitValue solved my query

 Table table = new Table(UnitValue.createPercentArray(columnWidth));

Now Column width is fixed. Cell margin won't affect column width.
