When there is a large Matrix in a worksheet, asking Maple to export the worksheet to PDF, the matrix is truncated in the PDF. Only one page of it shows.

Is there a way to tell Maple not to truncate large matrix, even if goes over many pages?

I need to export eveything in the worksheet to PDF.

Here is an example

restart;
interface(rtablesize = infinity);

A:=Array(1 .. 0);
for n from 1 to 50 do
    A,= [n];
od:

convert(convert(A,listlist),Matrix);

When I do , from menu, File->Export As and select PDF, then open the PDF, I only see half the matrix in the PDF.

Attached the PDF also.

Worksheet mode, Maple 2025.2

Is this a bug? export should export everything in worksheet.

truncate_output.pdf

truncate_output.mw

Update

Found a workaround.

First, I tried to print to pdf, istead of export to pdf. That also did not work.

Then I tried DocumentTools:-Tabulate instead, and now this worked. The PDF has the full content, not truncated.

i.e. instead of  

convert(convert(A,listlist),Matrix);

Did this:

the_table:=convert(A,listlist):
DocumentTools:-Tabulate(A,'width'=400,widthmode='pixels', etc...); #change as needed

For some reason, Matrix is truncated when exporting to PDF, but not Tabulate.

I think it is a bug for Maple to truncate the Matrix in PDF,  but workaround exist, so not critical.

I am not able to find place in help which lists which changes interface(typesetting = extended); makes compared to interface(typesetting = standard);

Reason  I am asking, is that in interface(typesetting = extended); Maple adds a small annoying "dot"  between each term for multiplication, which is not there in standard.

Is there a place in documentation that mentions this as part of extended? Where to find it?

in Matlab and Mathematica it is possible to put the labels in contour plot, directly on the lines (with nice positioning).

This makes it much much easier to see the level of each contour line since the values are on the lines,  without having to jump to the legend and guess the color and try to visually match colors with the plot.

For example, in Matlab

clear; close all;
x = 0:0.05:20;
y = 0:0.05:15;
[x,y] = meshgrid(x,y);
z = (11-x-y).^2 + (1+x+10*y-x.*y).^2;
[C,h] =contour(x,y,z,10);
clabel(C,h)

gives

In Maple

f:=(11 - x - y)^2 + (1 + x + 10*y - x*y)^2:
plots:-contourplot(f, x=0..20, y=0..15,
         legend=true,
         contours=10,
         'axes'='boxed',
         legendstyle=[location=right], 
         colorscheme="DivergeRainbow");

Is there a way to tell Maple to put contour labels on the "middle" of the level lines (contour lines) similar to what Matlab does?

I see no such option in https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/maple/view.aspx?path=plots/contourplot

I think I remeber doing this before but not sure and it is not in my cheat sheet.

Given an expression, I wanted to find all names in it. Which can be done using indets(f,name);

But then how to check if any of the names found are not in the Maple initial known names given in https://www.maplesoft.com/support/help/Maple/view.aspx?path=initialconstants

For example,

f:=x^2 - y^2+Pi;
indets(f,name);

Gives {Pi, x, y}  how does one then check if this list does not have any known name in it?

In this case Pi. I do not want to check explicitly for each name listed on the web page above.

Are these initial known names  grouped in some specific maple type that can be used to check against?

Or is there a command in Maple to return a list of all these initially known names? If so this list can be used to check against.

Asked google AI and it did not know.

Maple 2025.2

Is the following behavior expected? using  t=0 .. 3*Pi  vs.  t=0 .. round(3*Pi) give different plots.  Why? Should not the plot be the same?

ps. do not know if I asked this before or not. I can't remember. Search in Mapleprimes is not easy.
