Need advice: Importing XL into AutoCAD
(OP)
I am importing an XL file into AutoCADr14 but when I try to print it on our HP DesignJet350C it comes out all messed up and illegiable. Do I have a driver problem? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Logan

RE: Need advice: Importing XL into AutoCAD
Simplest way is to reduce the height of the rows and/or widths of the columns so the range cells will fit within the 12.5" limitation. Also try using a smaller font size.
Another option is to use the PASTESPEC command (choose EDIT>PASTE SPECIAL) and paste the excel worksheet as an Image Entity.
Hope this helps.

I can provide a macro that reads the Excel table and recreates it inside AutoCAD as Acad lines and Acad Text.
