AutoCAD LT :: Inserting Excel Spread Sheets
Sep 13, 2005
I just upgraded from AutoCAD LT 2004 to 2006. The work that I have been doing requires that I insert Excel spreadsheets on all of my drawings. In 2004 it was quite easy to size the spreadsheet.
When you pasted it AutoCAD LT would prompt me for a size which would get me close and then I could drag the corners to perfectly fit the spreadsheet. With 2006 it does not prompt me for a size AND dragging a corner is not as easy. Sometimes it will not let me drag it smaller. I then have to use the scale command.

I know you can insert an Excel spread sheet into the general table and have that show up on the drawing, but it has limitations to it that Excel gives you. My question is there a way to bring the Excel spread sheet into the drawing that would give you Excel functionality?

If you review the attached screen shot of a PDF you will see that my Excel spreadsheet object prints very light. This is added to a Paper Space layer that is same layer as the Title Block, which is printing fine. The colorful solid objects are each in their own viewports.
I have set the OLE property "Plot Quality" to "Monochrome", also I have set the "Plot Style Table" to "monochrome.ctb".
To place the spreadsheet table I have Excel open, I select the columns/rows that I want and then Ctrl-C, I flip over to ACAD and Ctrl-V to place the object, I then resize it by dragging its handles. On screen, in ACAD, it looks fine.
I am creating the PDF using "Cute PDF Writer", which does an excellent job creating PDFs from many applications. I don't think it's related to my problem. I have tried ACAD's "DWG To PDF.pc3", but had a similar problem, but worse in other aspects.

I have a spreadsheet in Excel that is split into columns. The first is the frame number, and the subsequent columns are the rotations about the X, Y and Z axis. There is also a column that has the location in the Z axis from the origin (0). These values are currently being input manually and keyed. The object being animated is a locator node which will form the parent of an object.
Is there a way to have these values read in automatically and for each frame to then be keyed to that value?
As I've never touched MEL or Python I wouldn't have a clue where to start trying to write some sort of script to do this.

tried to insert Excel tables into 2013 3D? It worked fine in 2012 but we just upgraded to 2013 and it no longer works. We get an error message that Excel is not supported. Is this a new feature or a bug? Also, our old drawings with the table already inserted does not plot normally. The table characters print at diffent sizes.

Is there a way of inserting points from an excel spreadsheet that come into the part file already fixed, instead of manually selecting the points and selecting the fix constraint?

was wondering if it's possible to bring in the value of a single Excel cell into a predefined window area in AutoCAD LT 2012? Some of our tool and die calculations are done in Excel, but we only want one cell (equation summary or description) brought into to AutoCAD 2007. If not AutoCAD LT 2007, then what about a more recent version of LT or even full blown AutoCAD?

shouldn't sheets marked as "exclude from count" not be counted?
I tried this in both 2013 and 2012 to see if maybe AutoDesk broke it, but it doesn't work in either one. This is easily reproducible for me, a file shouldn't be necessary. Just open up (or create) a multi sheet drawing. Go to edit sheet on one or two of them and check the "exclude form count" box. Now create a new iLogic rule and put the following line into it:
MsgBox("This is the number of sheets in the drawing: " & ThisDoc.Document.Sheets.Count, VBOkOnly, "Number of Sheets")

When you extract information from attribute blocks to form a spreadsheet can you specify that the spreadsheet also lists the co-ordinates x,y, z for that block? For example, you have an attribute block with information regarding, station number, chine number. When I extract the information I would like to list the x, y co-ordinate point of the circle block .

Recently I have been trying to build table driven products and ipart tables, but when I copy a member to create a new part number, upon exiting the iassembly author I get the following message "excel installation is required for this operation. failed to launch excel". I have a fully functional version of 2010 Excel installed which has been used so it should be recognized in the windows registry. I am running Windows 8 and Autodesk Inventor 2014.

I have AutoCAD 2013 and often "paste special" excel files that automatically update when the excel file changes.The problem I'm running into is I work with a person who has uses an older version of CAD 2004, so I always save to the older format for him.
When I etransmit, I be sure to add the excel file, but when he opens the dwg, only the outline of the excel appears in his dwg, no content.

Any hydraflow calculates depth of flow and spread at sump inlets? Does it assume that the entire flow is coming from one direction (similar to an on-grade inlet)? Or does it make an assumption about how much flow is coming into both ends of the inlet?

I have a few questions regarding spread/street capacity:
When calculating the spread at the catch basin locations, how does it determine the curb height?? Does it always assume 6"?? what if it is a roll curb??? is it olnly determined by the "throat height" of the inlet?? How can I calculate my spread on random spots throughout the street??

So I am Loving the use of Attout and Attin for updating block attributes from a spread sheet...Currently I am producing drawings with names on desks. I have created a block with the attributes of Name and desk.
I am currently updating the drawings blocks so that I can input an excel spreadsheet with over 1500 names into the drawing using Attin (changed the .xls to .txt and roberts your mothers brother)
Unfortunately the spreadsheets I have been given have the name as one field. i.e name: Joe Bloggs, Ideally I would have the information as First Name: Joe last name: Bloggs and create two associated attributes which would enable a nicely displayed block..
is there any way that I can format the block so that the attribute displays as a multi line..e.g.
Joe
Bloggs
not
Joe Bloggs.
I know I can go into each attribute (although trying to remember that command "A something Edit" I think) and edit it like a piece of txt. I would rather not have to go and do that if there is another work around..

I'd like to edit the attached picture by selecting the Cracker Jack bags hanging from his container and the one in his hand and make them look like bags carrying flu shots.
I know how to select them and give them a different color, or but is there a way besides that to make them look like realistic bags of something else?
So far I've painted out the Cracker Jacktype on the bags hanging from the container with white and it looks decent.

I have two elements that need to be blended together, a 'plan' photograph of toast with a bite taken out of it and then another photograph that needs to look like its spread onto the toast (a picture of an orang utan in the forest). I have tried some manual blending using different brushes but is there a good way to make this look convincing?

I am attempting to publish a pdf of a booklet I've been working on. It is currently set up with facing pages.
I want to publish it as a pdf, but so that it maintains the booklet format. That is, when it opens as a pdf, one should see both left and right hand pages, as one would browsing through a regular book.
How does one do this with Corel? I know once one has published, one can open the pdf and change the view setting to 'two page display.' I want this to happen automatically when the viewer opens the document though.

I've just moved from Lion to Mavericks, reinstalled various things and been working happily for a few days, but just discovered something which has me totally stumped. The "Fit Spread in Window" shortcut (option-cmd-0) no longer works. I've no idea if this is some preference that I haven't got setup in the same way as before, or if some other program or system default has 'reserved' that shortcut - certainly nothing else seems to be happening instead.

need approval and any changes from client so need to send book pdf as spread - at moment just showing as single page. I can tell them to view two pages but the problem with that is it pushes the pages so they're seeing wrong images next to each other. Is there any software etc to sort this or has adobe already done it & i just need to find it?

I just spent half a day designing my first book in LR 4. I completed the book a few minutes ago, and it was only then that I realized I don't seem to be able to export as a Jpeg or as a spread--only as a PDF, and then only single pages, so each spread is chopped in half.
LR is supposed to be a pro tool and this book module seems to be acting more like a consumer tool. If I am correct, then the entire module is basically useless to me and I have wasted half a days work, as I'll have to begin all over again in a new program.

I'm putting together a book for a client, and the publisher wants the files in a single-page layout pdf. It's a book, and I want the opposing pages to have wider spine-side margins, so I'd like to be able to set up every other page with a different master page to accomplish this. Is there any way to automatically set this up? I'd hate to have to go through and manually select every other page of a 200+ page document and set the appropriate master page.

We have a whole bunch of spreadsheets that we use for calculations and parts of those spreadsheets are linked to a ton of CAD Drawings via data links.
We would like to be able to deliver the CAD drawings to the client without having to send our calculation books (just the output tables). In other words, is it possible to embed the table data and remove the excel link for the final delivery?
