remove page width constraints

remove page width constraints

1. Describe your environment: What is your industry? What is your role in your organization? Describe your stakeholders.
Engineer


2. What version of Mathcad are you currently running?
trying to use Prime 8.0 (still use Mathcad 15 primarily)

3. Describe the problem you are trying to solve. Please include detailed documentation such as screenshots, images or video.
Please remove the constraints on page width in Mathcad and include more page sizes for printable part of page.  This is one of the areas in which the older versions of Mathcad are still superior to the Prime versions and it should be improved.  The extra space to the right of printable pages is useful for extra documentation (to supplement the part one might print) and to include reference material, etc.

 

The page size limitations seem unnecessary altogether.  The printable page sizes should be expanded for all standard paper sizes.  For example, I have often printed A0 size pages on a plotter with Mathcad 15 and I frequently print PDFs that size for other engineers.


4. What is the use case for your organization?
To make Mathcad more useful/versatile.

5. What business value would your suggestion represent for your organization?
This (among many features that are needed to make Prime surpass Mathcad 15) would enhance my investment in Mathcad
