I have legacy XMCD files (mathcad 15) which I'm unable to convert. I'm also unable to install Mathcad 15 as not even trial versions are available anymore.

Is there any way to convert my files or gain access to mathcad 15 still?

The convertor tool tells me that you have referenced worksheets in these documents, and hopefully you've converted those/that as well?

But I didn't have any problems with the conversion. The three worked on the first try.

Alternatively, is anyone else able to convert these files?

Why are you unable to convert the files, whats the problem?

If you are using a current version of Prime, you don't need MC15 to convert files. Prime comes with a built-in converter but you have to tell the installer that it should install it as well. Per default installation of the converter is unchecked. In case you missed to install the converter you can rerun the installer again to install the converter.

If you are using an older version of Prime which required MC15 to do the conversion, you have to state which version of Prime you need the conversion to be done because if someone does the conversion for you in a current version of Prime, you would not be able to open this Prime file with an older Prime version.

Concerning MC15, PTC has completely phased out Mathcad 15 and Prime 1-6 versions since January last year. But there still may be demo versions downloadable here and there.
