Answer 1

BaseFont rockwellBold = BaseFont.CreateFont(Server.MapPath("includes/fonts/") + "ROCKB.TTF", BaseFont.CP1250, BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
Font rock_11_bold_header = new Font(rockwellBold, 11, Font.NORMAL, new BaseColor(190, 36, 34));
PdfPCell descHeadrCell = new PdfPCell();
descHeadrCell.AddElement(new Phrase("Demo"), rock_11_bold_header));

Answer 2

I have been able to implement custom fonts via HTML in iTextSharp using the following code:

Step 1: Copy your font files to a subdirectory of your website, for my purposes I used "/media/fonts"

Step 2: Register the directory using the code below:

FontFactory.RegisterDirectory(C.Server.MapPath("/Media/Fonts"));

Step 3: Loop through all of the fonts in the FontFactory object to get the font's name:

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        foreach (string fontname in FontFactory.RegisteredFonts)
        {

            sb.Append(fontname + "\n");

        }

Step 4: Add the font name via a font-family style attribute:

YOURDIVNAME.Attributes.Add("style", "font-family: brush script mt italic;");
