that is what i am saying replace the image with some simple image like png or jpg , just for testing purpose and test whether it works or not if it works then you need to check whether itextsharp support gif or not.

Hi Sachin,
I tried the below code , at Parse method i am getting exception because i have image in masterpage. Everytime i am getting exception at htmlparser.Parse(sr);

Excpetion: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DevServer\Images\logo-with-tag-line.GIF'.

Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";

Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=TestPage.pdf");

Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);

StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();

HtmlTextWriter hw = new HtmlTextWriter(sw);

this.Page.RenderControl(hw);

StringReader sr = new StringReader(sw.ToString());

iTextSharp.text.Document pdfDoc = new iTextSharp.text.Document(iTextSharp.text.PageSize.A4, 10f, 10f, 100f, 0f);

HTMLWorker htmlparser = new HTMLWorker(pdfDoc);

MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();

PdfWriter.GetInstance(pdfDoc, Response.OutputStream);

pdfDoc.Open();

htmlparser.Parse(sr);

pdfDoc.Close();

Response.Write(pdfDoc);

Response.End();

your path is incorrect and the itextsharp is unable to find the image
change image path with some other image's path and test it will work.

Hi Sachin,

I have already tried this, its not working, it is giving exception at htmlparser.Parse(sr);

Error: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DevServer\Images\logo-with-tag-line.GIF'. .

Webpage has to download as it is when i click on button.

Please suggest

ITextSharp works perfect , please try again with this code
create a button on your aspx page and on click even add below codes
protected void btnExport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
    Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=TestPage.pdf");
    Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
    StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
    HtmlTextWriter hw = new HtmlTextWriter(sw);
    this.Page.RenderControl(hw);
    StringReader sr = new StringReader(sw.ToString());
    Document pdfDoc = new Document(PageSize.A4, 10f, 10f, 100f, 0f);
    HTMLWorker htmlparser = new HTMLWorker(pdfDoc);
    PdfWriter.GetInstance(pdfDoc, Response.OutputStream);
    pdfDoc.Open();
    htmlparser.Parse(sr);
    pdfDoc.Close();
    Response.Write(pdfDoc);
    Response.End();
}
