Bruno, thanks for answering.

I am using PdfPTable, sorry for being imprecise in the text. I also find your 
suggestion logical, it was my first approach. Your suggestion would be:

PdfPTable testTable = new PdfPTable(2);
List list3 = new List(List.ORDERED, 20);
list3.Add("item1");
list3.Add("item2");
list3.Add("item3");
list3.Add("item4");
testTable.AddCell(list3);

This results in a compiler error:

Error   3       The best overloaded method match for 
'iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfPTable.AddCell(iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfPCell)' has some 
invalid arguments

Error   4       Argument '1': cannot convert from 'iTextSharp.text.List' to 
'iTextSharp.text.pdf.PdfPCell'

I then saw an year old answer suggesting to add the list to a phrase first.

Btw, I assume you intended to write
testTable.AddCell(list3); and not testTable.AddCell(cell);



Lasse

Why do you flatten the list by putting it inside a Phrase object???

Why not do 'the logical thing' and put the list inside a cell???
Table table = new Table(1);
List list = new List(List.ORDERED, 20);
list.add("item1");
list.add("item2");
list.add("item3");
list.add("item4");
table.addCell(cell);

Why not use PdfPTable instead of Table???

Bruno
