Hi,
Are you referencing the itextsharp.dll inside the bin folder of the Visual
Studio Solution?
The problem may be that VisualStudio sometimes 'deletes' files from the bin
folder (weird huh?). So one simple solution is to move the itextsharp.dll file
from bin to another folder, like C:\itextsharp\itextsharp.dll and reference the
dll from there. Another solution is to mark the itextsharp.dll file in the bin
folder as read-only, so VS won't delete it.
This behavior, combined with a possible 'wipe out' option of the published
target folder in IIS, could make the itextsharp.dll disappear from the bin
folder in the web server, causing the FileLoadException.
Please check these options, best luck
Alex
