I am trying to create a sample web application from an empty web form template in VS2012 and add a PDFNet file to it. If I run the project in .NET 3.5 without problems. If I run it in .NET> = 4, I will get this error:
Failed to load file or assembly "PDFNet64" or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to download a program with the wrong format.
this is a stack trace:

I have searched many times on the Internet and in google groups, and I have already tried these solutions (among others), IT and, for example, IT
I start a computer with Windows 8 x64, and I have the Visual C ++ 2010 x64 distribution installed on my computer. I also tried console applications provided by samples downloaded from pdftron.com and they work fine in all versions of .NET. I tried to create a console application myself, and this also works on all versions of .NET. Then I thought that this might be the error of the VS2012 development server, which works in x86 mode, so I set up the IIS website and started it from there, but still the same question. I am a little deprived of the opportunity, does anyone have any ideas? Thanx.
