i used this code

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);
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
PdfWriter.GetInstance(pdfDoc, ms);
pdfDoc.Open();
htmlparser.Parse(sr);
FileStream file = new FileStream(Server.MapPath("~/Files/")+"pagepdf.pdf",FileMode.Create,System.IO.FileAccess.Write);
byte[] bytes = new byte[ms.Length];
ms.Read(bytes, 0,(int)ms.Length);
file.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
file.Close();
pdfDoc.Close();
ms.Close();

but gets Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed. error
