Emerald 2.2 and 2.1 uses that file to get to the print engine,
crpe32.dll. Emerald 2.5 does not use that file anymore and accesses
the print engine directly. You need the same version of the
crystl32.ocx
and crystl32.tlb files. I believe you must also have the same version
of the crpe32.dll as well.
