Data linking text scaling issue

Hello,

 

 

I have been having a strange issue that seems to of cropped up on 2 peoples machines out of 16.

 

 

We use excel data tables using excel formatting in AutoCAD with a text that is similar to 2.5mm RomanS (the text is native both to excel and AutoCAD).

 

 

The issue is that 14 machines can use exctractions and create tables with 2.5mm text. The other two create the same size tables with exactly the same settings but with text size 1.7639mm. (IMAGES TO FOLLOW)

 

 

The text shrinks to 1.7639mm even if they update the data links from an existing table that was 2.5mm text created by a different machine.

To get the table back to the correct size they need to be updated on the original machine.

 

 

The size of the tables are retained the correct size as per the excel page on every machine.

 

 

We need to use excel formatting to keep the tables the same widths and to use concatenation on columns. I do not want to use paste-spec as the table links need to be broken to cancel down to dumb tables once a job is complete.

 

 

Everyone is running version M.49.0.0 AuotCAD 2016 with Default profile set.

 

 

Hope someone can help, Thx
