The book is very hard to follow and does not cover what I need. I managed to
not save the pdf by sending null to the path parameter. There is no example
on how to download  a pdf with an image. The example I was following has
only download text. The example that converts to an image does not download,
and when I change the code to PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc,
Response.OutputStream)

As in the download method I get the pdf garbled up code on my browser
instead of a download window.

Strange question.
There are two books and numerous tutorial explaining how to use iText.
Didn't you find any of them?

I would like to be able to create a link on my page that allows the user to
convert an image (gif or jpeg) to a pdf file and download it to their

That's the standard way of doing it, isn't it? In a web context, you either
create the PDF in memory (using a ByteArrayOutputStream) or you send it
straight to the browser (using a ServletOutputStream).




As it is, the methods used in the example Im following have the file saved
in my server.


Did you read the book? Please read chapter 9 of the Second Edition of iText
in Action, explaining how to create PDFs from a servlet. You can find the
examples here: http://itextpdf.com/book/chapter.php?id=9
