Hello,

I have seen some Maple ebooks that use a *.mwz files. It requires a key to open them. I would like to be able to create this too. Could you help me please?

Maplesoft Proprietary Format

.mwz is a proprietary format created by Maplesoft to protect our electronic books from copying. Creating these files requires a tool that Maplesoft has not released publicly.

So, it is not possible for you to create .mwz files.

However, I am curious as to why you wish to create .mwz files? If you are creating a product that you would like to sell, you should look into the MapleConnect program. Members of this program would be able to have their files distributed in .mwz.

Other language than English

Thank you for this information. I thought that it is. I would like to distribute study materials in Czech language over the Czech Republic and Slovak republic and this protection would be very usefull for my situation.

I think that the MapleConnect program is not suitable for my situation, is it?

mwz compression

Aren't mwz files compressed ? If so, that would be one reason. Otherwise, it would be convenient for classroom notes, etc.
