How Can you print long expressions

How can you have MathCad split the long expressing into lines at addition/subtration terms so it can be printed properly.

An example is attached "I am doing it manually"

I still wish to embed MathCad within my post....I tried the Blue A but I guess it works for hyperlinks...I have also tried to embed lines of MathCad using copy paste still does not work!

You would have to copy and paste the result, so that it's dead. Then Mike's suggestion will work.

You can break long expressions by holding Ctrl and hitting enter. Example shown below.

Download a freeware program called Irfanview and copy and paste the regions in there, then insert them into your post as I have done above.

the long expression is a result of symbolic calculation (symbolic output)....I tried to use ctrl+enter within symbolical output terms but it did not work (I could be doing something wrong...)

If that is the case, I don't think you can sorry.

The Ctrl Enter works when manually typing formulas, but doesn't work with symbolic evaluations though.

When I want to print a Mathcad-sheet with a long result of a symbolic evaluation (for a Figure for an article or a book) I convert this result into picture (PrtSc key) and edit this picture make it not so long.

It is a long way but it is one way!

See 3-d and others factor operators (a working with prime and not prime numbers) here (one Fig. from my book):

Valery,

That is a VERY LONG way. I think Richards suggestion above would be the right way to go.
