Use SaveFileDialog to display a standard save dialog which would allow the user to select where he wants the file to be saved. Refer : https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.savefiledialog.aspx Example : SaveFileDialog dialog = new SaveFileDialog(); dialog.Title = Save file as...; dialog.Filter = Text files (*.txt)|*.txt|All files (*.*)|*.*; dialog.RestoreDirectory = true; if (dialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK) { MessageBox.Show(dialog.FileName); } Of course you have to use dialog.FileName when creating your FileStream: PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter . GetInstance ( doc  new FileStream ( dialog . FileName  FileMode . Create ));
