Alignment of cells in itextsharp

Question

I have a problem and I can’t find a solution, I am using itextesharp in a windowsfroms application, I created a table with 7 cells and I would like to align some right and others centralized. unfortunately I am only able to align either all the cells to the right or to the left. through the table.DefaultCell.Horizontalalignment = 0; I’ll post the code. I would like to thank anyone who can help, because I really need to finish this report.

            PdfPTable tabela = new PdfPTable(7);
            PdfPCell celula = new PdfPCell();
            tabela.TotalWidth = 790f;
            //  celula.HorizontalAlignment = 1;
            tabela.DefaultCell.HorizontalAlignment = 0;
            tabela.LockedWidth = true;
            float[] widths = new float[] { 16F, 40f,45F,60F,15f, 15f, 15f };
            tabela.SetWidths(widths);
            tabela.HorizontalAlignment = 0;
            celula.HorizontalAlignment = 0;
            strSql= "  ";
            con = new SqlConnection(strcon);
            SqlCommand cmd2 = new SqlCommand(strSql, con);
            cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("@DataI", DateTime.Parse(mtbDtInicial.Text));
            cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("@DataF", DateTime.Parse(mtbDtFinal.Text));
            cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ifd", emn1);
            con.Open();
            SqlDataReader ler = cmd2.ExecuteReader();
            while (ler.Read())
            {
                tabela.AddCell (ler[4].ToString()); //conta a direita
                tabela.AddCell(ler[0].ToString());//título  a direita
                tabela.AddCell(ler[1].ToString());//subtitulo a direita
                tabela.AddCell(ler[2].ToString());//descr a direita
                tabela.AddCell(ler[6].ToString());//valor centralizado
                tabela.AddCell(ler[7].ToString());//perce centralizado
                tabela.AddCell(ler[8].ToString());//desp centralizado
            }
            document2.Add(tabela);

I know it’s a little late for the delivery of your report and I believe you have solved your problem, but I will leave this response as an aid to other users.

If you add a PdfPCell, the complete object, instead of just its content, you can define other cell characteristics, such as alignment.

//Conta a direita
PdfPCell conta_cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(ler[4].ToString()));
conta_cell.HorizontalAlignment = PdfPCell.ALIGN_RIGHT;
tabela.AddCell(conta_cell); 

//título  a direita
PdfPCell titulo_cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(ler[0].ToString()));
titulo_cell.HorizontalAlignment = PdfPCell.ALIGN_RIGHT;
tabela.AddCell(titulo_cell);

...

//percentual centralizado
PdfPCell perce_cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(ler[7].ToString()));
perce_cell.HorizontalAlignment = PdfPCell.ALIGN_CENTER;
tabela.AddCell(perce_cell);

...
