I find it's harder to read than the old expert-style receipt which was able to hold all of the ticket information on the first page no matter how long my itinerary was.

Keep in mind that we're talking about receipts not itineraries. I think the email itineraries, which are much more likely to be use and useful on a phone, are perfectly fine. But that format is not OK for a receipt. I'd like to see the old receipt format again.
The other poster was talking about presentation at Indian airports, where itineraries (confirmations) are accepted. Indian airport personnel don't care about how much you paid (receipt), but they generally want to see a printed (hard) copy.
