What is the PdfPTable.DefaultCell property used for?
I need help explaining the Java documentation for PdfPTable.getDefaultCell.
The Java documentation for PdfPTable.getDefaultCell() reads:
Gets the default
PdfPCellthat will be used as reference for all theaddCellmethods exceptaddCell(PdfPCell).
I don't understand this.

If you use iText 7, you’ll find some changes in creating tables. PdfPTable and PdfPCell don’t exist anymore, we use Table and Cell.
You should use addCell() method to add any type of content you want (String, Image, BlockElement or Cell itself) and set different properties directly to it. The getDefaultCell() method doesn’t exist.
If you want to see how to answer this question in iText 5, follow this link.
