Please take reference to the below code and correct your code.

</div>
<asp:Button ID="btnHTML" Text="Create HTML" runat="server" OnClick="btnHTML_Click" />

Namespaces

using System.Text;
using System.IO;
using iTextSharp.text;
using iTextSharp.text.html.simpleparser;
using iTextSharp.text.pdf;

Code

public void htmlstr()
{
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    string filename = "A";
    sb.Append(" <html><body><table width='100%' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='2'  >");
    sb.Append("<tr><td colspan='4'></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td></td><th><img id='alogo'  height='75' width=75' src=" + Server.MapPath("~/images/ logo.png") + "></th><td><img id='xlogo'  height='75' width=75' src=" + Server.MapPath("~/images/ logo.png") + "></td><td></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td colspan='4'>Date :" + DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) + "</td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td colspan='4'></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td colspan='4'>Hello</td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td colspan='4'></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td colspan='4'></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td></td><td colspan='2'>test matter</td><td></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td></td><td colspan='2'>test matter</td><td></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td></td><td colspan='2'>test matter</td><td></td></tr>");

    sb.Append("<tr><td colspan='4'></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td></td><td colspan='2'> test</td><td></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td></td><td colspan='2'>test</td><td></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td></td><td colspan='2'>test</td><td></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td colspan='4'></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td colspan='4'></td></tr>");
    sb.Append("<tr><td></td><td colspan='2'>Test footer</td><td></td></tr>");
    sb.Append(" </table></body></html>");
    divpdf.InnerHtml = sb.ToString();
}
protected void btnHTML_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    htmlstr();
    string filename = "A";
    Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
    Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=" + filename + ".pdf");
    Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
    StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
    HtmlTextWriter hw = new HtmlTextWriter(sw);
    divpdf.RenderControl(hw);
    StringReader sr = new StringReader(sw.ToString());
    Document pdfDoc = new Document(PageSize.A4.Rotate(), 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();
}
