Make the 404 page a program page (asp / dotnet) and within that page 
decode the missing page request and route accordingly. Maybe you can use 
the olde directory path to redirect the user to the new section, or if 
it's a PDF route to your PDF page.

This way you only have one page with 404 error logic.
