If I am on Prime and do not use symbolic evaluation, what should I do?

People who were on earlier versions of Mathcad Prime may remember that in order to open Mathcad 13, 14, or 15 worksheets in Prime, you also needed to have Mathcad 15 installed on your computer. After that date, you will be able to obtain licenses and software for Prime 7 only.Ĭan I open Mathcad 15 files in Mathcad Prime 7? Your existing licenses will continue to work through the expiration date in your license file.

Will my existing license stop working on December 31st? The deadline for the multi-year subscription is December 7th – not December 31st! The licenses must be activated by December 31st. You can purchase a multi-year license, up to four years, for Mathcad 15 or Mathcad Prime 1.0 through 6.0. If you cannot upgrade from Mathcad 15 to Prime 7, do not worry. What if I want or need to stay on Mathcad 15?

Yes, Mathcad Prime 7 has been available since March 11, 2021. This FAQ will hopefully provide reassurance regarding your path forward. PTC will no longer have rights to use the third-party proprietary engine after December 31st of this year.Īs a Mathcad user since version 13, I understand the unexpected nature of this change. Mathcad Prime 6.0 contained both a new PTC-controlled symbolic engine as well as the third-party engine. The versions of Mathcad before Prime (13, 14, and 15) as well as Prime 1.0 through 5.0 used a third-party proprietary engine for symbolic calculation.

After December 31, 2021, the only version of PTC Mathcad available to new customers will be Mathcad Prime 7.
