I can only explain in Java terms what you are doing wrong.
You get an instance of a PdfWriter as an unnamed object.
You should get a named object, such as:
var writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc1, New FileStream(path +
"/Doc12.pdf", FileMode.Create));
Then you should ask that object (NOT the class) for its DirectContent.
