How do I set config file in root dir to load the DLL

Question

I have a dll (Custom Pdf handler) which is bin dir of my application which takes raw url and concate the url with the file server name and downloads file.
My file server and web server are in separate box. So what i did was on click of link I send the request to the web server which has my custom handler which knows
which file server to go and download the file. But the handler dll is in bin directory of application. so my root directory config does not know
how to load the dll.

<system.webServer>
<handlers>
<add name="PdfFileHandle" path="*.pdf" verb="*" type="FileHandler.FileHandler" resourceType="Unspecified" preCondition="integratedMode" />
</handlers>
</system.webServer>

I added file handler in configuration file of root but it does not know how and where to get the FileHandler.FileHandler

Sir I did not get it. My root page (which is http://myrootpage/ ) is the collection of other web application. myrootpage has a testing html page) with a config file. other web application lies under neath in hierarchy and they have bin. I have written custom handler to handle *.pdf request. but i want to place this handle at root or entry point so that i could handle all pdf extension request for all web application.

First copy the file to the project folder outside bin Now add reference to teh DLL and point to the location of project folder outside bin where you copied. This should work.
