Inserting a Word Document into Autocad LT 2007
Inserting a Word Document into Autocad LT 2007
(OP)
I would like to insert and link a Microsoft Word file in my DWG file using OLE w/Autocad LT 2007. I set up a 2 column Word file that uses a custom page size 13" wide and 17" tall. I am using 12-point Arial text and 18-point Titles. this corresponds roughly to 1/8" text and 3/16" titles. The file comes in very large. I can go to the properties page and change the width or height, but the bottom part of the page is cut off. Autocad LT want to bring the document in square or very close to square.
So if I change the width to 13" to match the document, the height changes to 13" since I want to lock the aspect ratio. If I allow the aspect ratio to change, the text gets really crazy. Any secrets to making it work with my software? I am using MS Word 2007 and Autocad LT 2007.

I had somewhat better results with Excel, but the combination was still quirky.
This might explain why anyone might encounter problems with OLE:
