Here you are.

Be prepared that conversion usually is not perfect and often requires some post-editing.

Ridiculous as it may sound, but to convert files to Prime format, PTC forces you to install a full Mathcad 15 (latest release) on your system. You will have to download and install a 30-days trial of Mathcad 15, too.

Be prepared that (I guess) you will lose the ability to convert files after the trial period, as MC15 will refuse to load after that time in contrary to Prime, which falls back to a crippled version called Express.

If you have a licensed MC14 or an older release of MC15 installed on your system, save your license file, as the installation of MC15 will remove your installed MC.

If you don't have too many files to convert, you may consider posting them here and I'm sure someone will convert them for you.

Here is what the converter did with your file as well as a pdf of how it should look.

Any good reason for using Prime?

You can use Prime Express without restrictions of time.
