@acer 

Thanks again! You are correct that I did have access and I also submitted a report as you suggested.

@acer 

I don't have administrator access to test this on the Windows 11 system and in general I wish there was an easier fix for my students, but at least we have identified the issue: 

I can indeed confirm that changing ScrollableMathTableOutput=true to ScrollableMathTableOutput=false fixes the problem on my school Mac. I appreciate your clear instructions and link to find the Maple Preferences file in order to make the change. Thanks!

@acer 

>Which operating system are you using, btw? Perhaps someone else might be able to reproduce the problem.

On the Mac it is Sonoma 14.6.1 with Maple 2024.1

On the school server it is running  Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based System with Maple 2024.1

And the students have a variety of different systems on their personal computers

The problem is happening on all of these. 

I wouldn’t have access to GUI settings on the server but I can try later on the Mac.

@acer thanks for your suggestions

I tried 

with(LinearAlgebra): interface(rtablesize=40): 
M := Matrix([[1, 2, 3, 10], [4, 15, 6, 7], [0, 0, 0, 0]]);
ReducedRowEchelonForm(M);

and the same thing happened---that is it displays the entire matrix initially, then goes to vertical ellipsis when trying to Print or Save as PDF. Additional info is that after printing, the ellipsis stay in the Maple file unless I execute the commands, in which case they disappear. To reiterate, my students would like to be able to print/save to a PDF.

I tested a matrix with many more rows to activate the scrolling initially and the ScrollableMathTableOutput=false: command didn't turn off the scrolling: 
 with(LinearAlgebra): ScrollableMathTableOutput=false: 
M := Matrix([[1, 2, 3, 10], [4, 15, 6, 7], [0, 0, 0, 0],[1, 2, 3, 10], [4, 15, 6, 7], [0, 0, 0, 0],[1, 2, 3, 10], [4, 15, 6, 7], [0, 0, 0, 0],[0, 0, 0, 0],[1, 2, 3, 10], [4, 15, 6, 7], [0, 0, 0, 0]]);
ReducedRowEchelonForm(M);

so perhaps I am using the wrong command.

Any other suggestions?

@Carl Love I appreciate all your help! Thanks.

@Carl Love 

Great! Thanks.

@C_R and @Carl Love thanks for the replies. I tried changing the resolution on my computer, but unlike C_R's results on Microsoft, that made no difference to the fonts in the plots

>I think that the OP's problem is only that the fonts in the plots appear too small.

Yes, this is correct.

@dharr , @Joe Riel

Thanks so much---yes using the full pathname worked just fine:

VLAlibpath := "/Users/greenwaldsj/VLA/library/":

where greenwaldsj is my user home directory name

Appreciate the help!
