I've experienced problems a couple of times when trying to save a workbook in Maple 2021.

At first I thought it was due to a unstable VPN connection, but this also happens on a local drive.

This is just an obervation. May be due to me missing some clarification.

My understanding is that in Maple 2021, one can now export a complete Maple worksheet/document to Latex successfuly.

According to https://www.maplesoft.com/products/maple/new_features/  it says under "Latex export"
  
  Export is available for individual expressions or the entire document, though the latex command

So I would have expected that now all the online PDF documents for the new features in Maple 2021 to be generated from Latex for better formatting.

But when going over number of documents, they do not appear to have converted to Latex before generating the PDF.

Even the PDF document about the new latex command does not appear to have been generated from Latex. I can quickly recognize a PDF that was generated from Latex, and these PDF files are clearly not.

Looking at sample PDF from Maple website, it says the generator is "iText" and not latex compiler.

It looks like these documents were just a direct export of the Maple worksheet to PDF, instead of being exporting to Latex first, and then compiled to PDF.

Am I missing something? Why not take advantage of the Maple Latex export, and convert all the documents to Latex first and then generate the PDF from Latex? This would make them look much better in terms of formatting and math rendering.

Here are some examples

Why did not Maple documentation take advantage of the new export command of Maple's latex command? This would also have been a good way and an opportunity to show case the effectiveness of the new latex export command.

May be it was not done due to time constraint before the release date of maple 2021? Or are there other technical reasons?
