An upper memory block (UMB) provider, such as EMM386.EXE, can cause problems for
Ventura Publisher 4.0 for MS-DOS when running under Microsoft Windows version
3.1 in standard mode. Ventura appears to start properly, but you receive the
following error message:

restart the system, or run in 386 enhanced mode. To remark a line, type the
