FungI have taken a look and... have no idea. It's obviously not layers. It's not any of the OLE* system variables (my first thought was OLEHIDE).

I hope someone else has some ideas, best of luck.

no better luck here, same problem, and I don't see a reason for it.

Best bet? delete the OLE' objects, and PASTE SPECIAL with AutoCAD entities to get a real table that you can use. Adesk has had so many issues that remain unresolved since the first OLE implementation, R12 for Windows maybe? certainly by R14, and it still is kludgy. Not totally Adesk's fault, but if they want to offer OLE as a feature, it ought to work well. Otherwise treat it like the AXIS command...

just my grumpy 2 cents

Looks like the excel has some fonts or language pack that Autocad can not read in the layouts.

thanks for all replies.

I have created a new blank drawing and paste the same excel file as OLE,
all tables display well in PS.

thanks again for all help.
