ItextSharp (Itext) - set custom font for paragraph

I am trying to set custom font to Paragraph, but I can't make it work. I tried setting .Font= , but it only works size-wise, but it ignores font. Could you please assist?

Paragraph T = new Paragraph(newTempLine);
iTextSharp.text.Font contentFont = iTextSharp.text.FontFactory.GetFont("Webdings", 12, iTextSharp.text.Font.NORMAL);
T.Font = contentFont;
myDocument.Add(T);

Check if below works:

string name = "Century Gothic Bold";
if (!FontFactory.IsRegistered(name))
{
    string systemRoot = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("SystemRoot");
    string path = Path.Combine(systemRoot, "fonts", @"GOTHICB.TTF");
    FontFactory.Register(path);
}

var font = FontFactory.GetFont(name, fontSize, textColor);
var paragraph = new Paragraph(text, font);
Phrase phrase = new Phrase(paragraph);
var myPdfCell = new PdfPCell(phrase);

Set it in the constructor:

Font contentFont = FontFactory.GetFont(…);
Paragraph para = new Paragraph(newTempLine, contentFont);
