I am not sure why it is not working the way you want it and don t want to
spend the time to investigate why. But, possible workarounds could be
Instead of using cell.setImage(); I would try new PdfPCell(image); and I
remember a flag to scale the image to fit the cell, so would try that as
well.
If nothing, you may scale the image to the desired fixed height before
placing in the cell using image.scale...
Good luck
