Table style in Acad 2005?

[nel]

When I paste data from excel into autocad as 'autocad entities'(paste special) the newly created autocad table does not adhere to the pre-defined table style. Even if I right click on the table and remove overides the text sizes are wrong. I suspect it might be related to some variable, but I don't know which one.

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I suspect that certain Excel properties are being carried over into the individual cells.

Also, make sure in Excel you make the font the same font as what you will use in AutoCAD. for instance, if you use Romans in ACAD, then choose Romans in Excel, that helps a bit.

 

look at the properties box after Pasting the Table and match up the sizes & heights with that of your Table Style, sometimes you will find your Table Style has an error in it... i've done it numerous times :-)

Try to look at your table properties, somehow it relates in your table configuration

I hope in 5 years this has been sorted.
