Chadww Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Hey all, Im trying to link mtext in an acad drawing to a word document. For example, when I write a legal description based on a drawing, in word, I want the text that I am referencing in the drawing to be linked. In other words, if I change the text in the drawing, it will automatically change the text in the word doc. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chadww Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 (edited) Doesn't seem to do what I am looking for. I want to manipulate the text in acad and have the text change within certain areas of the word doc. Edited May 16, 2012 by Chadww Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
