                saveFileDialog.Filter = "All Files | *.*  ";
                if (saveFileDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
                    string path = saveFileDialog.FileName;
                    Document pdfdoc = new Document(PageSize.A4); // Setting the page size for the PDF
                    PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(pdfdoc, new FileStream(path + ".pdf", FileMode.Create)); //Using the PDF Writer class to generate the PDF
                    writer.PageEvent = new PDFFooter();
                    // Opening the PDF to write the data from the textbox
                    PdfPTable table = new PdfPTable(dataGridView1.Columns.Count);
                    //table.TotalWidth = GridView.Width;
                    float[] widths = new float[] 
                        dataGridView1.Columns[0].Width, dataGridView1.Columns[1].Width, dataGridView1.Columns[2].Width 
                    table.SetWidths(widths);
                    table.HorizontalAlignment = 1; // 0 - left, 1 - center, 2 - right;
                    table.SpacingBefore = 2.0F;
                    PdfPCell cell = null;
                    pdfdoc.Open();
                    //doc.Open();
                    //   Phrase p = new Phrase(new Chunk(heading, titleFont));
                    // doc.Add(p);
                    foreach (DataGridViewColumn c in dataGridView1.Columns)
                        cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(new Chunk(c.HeaderText)));
                        cell.HorizontalAlignment = PdfPCell.ALIGN_CENTER;
                        cell.VerticalAlignment = PdfPCell.ALIGN_CENTER;
                        table.AddCell(cell);
                    if (dataGridView1.Rows.Count > 0)
                        for (int i = 0; i < dataGridView1.Rows.Count; i++)
                            PdfPCell[] objcell = new PdfPCell[dataGridView1.Columns.Count];
                            for (int j = 0; j < dataGridView1.Columns.Count - 1; j++)
                                cell = new PdfPCell(new Phrase(dataGridView1.Rows[i].Cells[j].Value.ToString()));
                                cell.HorizontalAlignment = PdfPCell.ALIGN_CENTER;
                                cell.VerticalAlignment = PdfPCell.ALIGN_CENTER;
                                table.AddCell(cell);
                                //lstCells.Add(cell);
                                objcell[j] = cell;
                            PdfPRow newrow = new PdfPRow(objcell);
                            table.Rows.Add(newrow);
                    pdfdoc.Add(table);
                    MessageBox.Show("Pdf Generation Successfully.");
                    pdfdoc.Close();
            catch (Exception ex)
                MessageBox.Show("Error in pdf Generation.");

Your question sounds like it is related to PdfWriter as that is how you're saving the file.  These forums are for MS products.  Please post questions related to third-party products in their forums.
