I have created a Name Tag printing function which is a  table (A - PDFTable)
for each name tag and a table (B - PDFCellTable) with the tag contents.

 

I addCell the B Cell into Table A.

 

B. Cells have border set to 0, so no lines within the name tag, but the
border appears around each name tag how do I eliminate that?

 

In other words the borders seem to be around the cell of the outer
table(PDFtable)

 

Code:

        While rs.Read()

            AttendeesListed += 1

            Dim PDFCellTable As PdfPTable = New PdfPTable(1)

            'total height = 180

            'Name Side, Row 2 is Name (Flipped)

            PDFCell.MinimumHeight = 100

            PDFCell.HorizontalAlignment = 1   '0=Left, 1=Centre, 2=Right

            PDFCell.VerticalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_TOP

            PDFCell.PaddingLeft = 0

            PDFCell.PaddingRight = 0

            PDFCell.PaddingTop = 8

            If Len(rs("Name")) > 20 Then

                NameFontSize = 28

            Else

                NameFontSize = 34

            End If

            PDFCell.Phrase = New Phrase(rs("Name").ToString, New
Font(Font.FontFamily.HELVETICA, NameFontSize, Font.BOLD))

            PDFCell.Rotation = 180

            PDFCellTable.AddCell(PDFCell)

            'Name Side, Row 1 NN Logo (Flipped)            

            PDFCell.MinimumHeight = 40

            PDFCell.HorizontalAlignment = 0   '0=Left, 1=Centre, 2=Right

            PDFCell.VerticalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_TOP

            PDFCell.PaddingLeft = 10

            PDFCell.PaddingTop = 10

            PDFCell.PaddingRight = 0

            PDFCell.PaddingBottom = 0

            PDFCell.AddElement(New Chunk(NNLogoImage, 20, -20))

            PDFCellTable.AddCell(PDFCell)

            'Menu Side Row 1 Choices

            PDFCell.MinimumHeight = 50

            PDFCell.HorizontalAlignment = 1   '0=Left, 1=Centre, 2=Right

            PDFCell.VerticalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_MIDDLE

            PDFCell.PaddingTop = 0

            PDFCell.PaddingBottom = 5

            PDFCell.Phrase = New Phrase(rs("Name").ToString, New
Font(Font.FontFamily.HELVETICA, 20))

            PDFCell.Rotation = 0

            PDFCellTable.AddCell(PDFCell)

            'Menu Side Row 1 Choices

            PDFCell.MinimumHeight = 50

            PDFCell.HorizontalAlignment = 1   '0=Left, 1=Centre, 2=Right

            PDFCell.VerticalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_BOTTOM

            PDFCell.PaddingTop = 0

            PDFCell.PaddingBottom = 5

            PDFCell.Phrase = New Phrase("Choice1  |  Choice2  |  Choice3",
New Font(Font.FontFamily.HELVETICA, 14, Font.BOLD))

            PDFCell.Rotation = 0

            PDFCellTable.AddCell(PDFCell)

            'Row 3 Misc Info (Date, Pre Seat, Number)

            PDFCell.MinimumHeight = 40

            PDFCell.HorizontalAlignment = 1   '0=Left, 1=Centre, 2=Right

            PDFCell.VerticalAlignment = Element.ALIGN_BOTTOM

            PDFCell.PaddingTop = 0

            PDFCell.PaddingBottom = 11

            PDFCell.PaddingRight = 25

            PDFCell.Phrase = New Phrase(rs("PreSeated") & Blank &
CDate(rs("doDate")).ToString("M/d") & Blank &
AttendeesListed.ToString("#,###"), New Font(Font.FontFamily.HELVETICA, 6))

            PDFCellTable.AddCell(PDFCell)

            PDFTable.AddCell(PDFCellTable)         รง==== It looks like this
added cell to the outer table has borders? How to suppress them?

            PDFCellTable = Nothing

        End While
