Mathcad prime MCDX to mathcad 15 XMCD file conversion

[AD_11368417]

Is it possible to convert mcdx (prime files) to xmcd (mathcad 15)?

If yes, how to do it?

Hi,

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but no not without getting into internal file storage methods of each software,

Cheers

Hi,

It is possible to selectr then cut Ctrl+C and paste Ctrl+V each expression and text region in the mcdx to an xmcd file

Cheers

You are right, it is possible to do so, but for math regions you will end up just with a picture of it and will have to retype all math in MC15 again one by one.

I may be possible to write a converter but to the best of my knowledge nobody so far has done and so the only way is to recreate the Prime worksheet in MC15 by retyping all the expressions. Just if the Prime sheet contains a lot of text and pictures, copy & paste can help a bit - sub/superscripts, highlight colors, etc. will get lost and you still will have to reformat, but at least you won't have to retype the text itself.
