In a previous code snippet, you posted:

BaseFont.CreateFont(BaseFont.TIMES_ROMAN, "Cp1252", False)

If you want another font, you can replace BaseFont.TIMES_ROMAN with the path to 
a font file. If you're working on Windows, you could try  
"c:/windows/fonts/arial.ttf". Note that it's always wise to embed custom fonts 
(final parameter = True) because the custom font may not be present on the OS 
of the consumer of your PDF files.

Go to http://kuujinbo.info/iTextInAction2Ed/index.aspx and take a look at the 
examples in chapter 11. For instance:
