iTextSharp works with Points (72 to an inch) rather than millimeters, so you first need to convert your millimeters to points (https://www.google.co.uk/?ion=1&espv=2#q=convert%20millimeters%20to%20points).
Then, depending on your requirement, you can either use a table for repeated content (multiple labels on the same page) or you can use absolute positioning to place your single label on the document as you need e.g:
Document document = new Document();
path = Path.Combine(path, "Label.pdf");
using (FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(path, FileMode.Create))
{
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, fileStream);
document.Open();
PdfContentByte canvas = writer.DirectContent;
BaseFont baseFont = BaseFont.CreateFont(BaseFont.TIMES_ROMAN, BaseFont.CP1252, false);
canvas.SetFontAndSize(baseFont, 8f);
ColumnText column = new ColumnText(canvas);
column.SetSimpleColumn(200,312,20,700); //width, height, xPos, yPos
Chunk c1 = new Chunk("Recipient Name\n");
Chunk c2 = new Chunk("Street Name\n");
Chunk c3 = new Chunk("City\n");
Chunk c4 = new Chunk("Post Code\n");
column.AddText(c1);
column.AddText(c2);
column.AddText(c3);
column.AddText(c4);
column.Go();
document.Close();
}
Here's an article on using tables in iTextsharp: http://www.mikesdotnetting.com/article/86/itextsharp-introducing-tables, and here's one on using columns to
do the same thing: http://www.mikesdotnetting.com/article/89/itextsharp-page-layout-with-columns.
