When You Don’t Want the Formatting of Your Imports To Test Your Vocabulary …
Have you ever been in a situation where a project deadline is looming and you’ve suddenly got to insert enormous Excel® spreadsheets with material information and specs into your AutoCAD® project? You import the first spreadsheet, but it looks nothing like the original Excel version. It looks weird. In fact, it’s a complete mess, and the cussing begins. (Hopefully, it’s silently, in your head!)
.
Haven’t You Got Better Things To Do?
You can either resign yourself to hours of monotonous, repetitive formatting to fix it all while the deadline clock continues to tick, tick, tick. Or you can have flawlessly formatted imports of Excel and Word™ data with literally a couple of mouse clicks. It’s a no-brainer which option is less stressful and more productive, right?
Watch This!
Can You Afford to Waste Time?
Importing Word and Excel data into AutoCAD — without the right tool — not only wastes your time but also opens the door to errors. Even with hours of painstaking manual formatting, it’s a disastrous recipe for embarrassing mistakes or late submittals.
If you’re tired of burning hours importing Excel spreadsheets and Word® docs and trying to get them to look good, you need a change.
The Microsoft Office Importer™ software saves you tons of time by automatically managing all the hundreds of little details that must be correct when bringing in Excel or Word data.
Spreadsheet imports that look as perfect as the original.

What About Header Rows in Your Excel Paste?
Did you watch the video above? Did you see how effortlessly Microsoft Office Importer can split your gigantic spreadsheets to fit perfectly inside your DWG borders? That leaves the question: What about your header rows? You need them repeated all over the place. No sweat. Microsoft Office Importer handles this for you automatically.
Cool, But What About Really Huge Excel or Word Pastes?
If you’ve ever tried to get a tall Excel or Word paste into a short space, you know the trouble it gives you. In fact, in talking with some new customers, we found that one of the tasks that users spend a lot of time on is trying to make tall pastes fit inside their DWG borders.
These AutoCAD users would manually split up tall data into multiple pastes. Trying to do this is both time-consuming and frustrating. Simply changing text size is rarely an option as the text must be readable in the plot and must almost always follow a CAD standard that dictates the text size.
Fortunately, for Microsoft Office Importer owners, this isn’t an issue.
Microsoft Office Importer has a feature called “split paste into columns.” Now, when you go to place a tall paste into your DWG file, Microsoft Office Importer automatically and intelligently splits your paste into multiple columns so that it fits nicely into the allotted space — and repeats the headers for you.
To be clear, this refers to columns in the DWG file, not Excel columns. The paste that Microsoft Office Importer splits into multiple columns can contain as many Excel columns and rows as you like.
In effect, your tall paste flows naturally from one column in your DWG file to the next column (from left to right).
The result is your paste starts where you choose and automatically creates one or more “columns” for you.
How Microsoft Office Importer Can Help You
If you want your imported Excel data in AutoCAD to look just like the original Excel spreadsheet, Microsoft Office Importer is the answer. And a Word import will look exactly like the original Word doc.

Don’t You Think You Deserve:
Our Incomparable Experience with Importing and Linking Excel and Word Data into AutoCAD
Want software with incredible reliability? That’s simple. Just spend more than a quarter century refining your products based on feedback from countless CAD professionals using your software successfully. That’s been our approach. And it still is.
When importing data — such as schedules, general notes or any required information — into AutoCAD from Word and Excel, ensuring a swift and seamless process is our goal, without compromising quality and accuracy.
Keeping your project files up to date — even when team members make changes to the original spreadsheets and documents without notifying you — is essential. Having swift, precise imports that remain linked to the source data for automatic updates demands software with no glitches or missing features.
So, you want rapid, effortless imports. You want impeccable dependability. You want fully automated updates, combined with the certainty that your AutoCAD drawings are up-to-date and impervious to eagle-eyed scrutiny upon submission. Naturally, you also want to maintain control over the appearance of your data, without it becoming a time-eating burden.
Achieving this functional combination requires dealing with a multitude of subtle — and not-so-subtle — factors.
Every day, we sidestep landmines — so that you don’t have to — that could result in missing data in your imports, wasted time, client dissatisfaction and general frustration with the import process. Problems can remain hidden until they surface unexpectedly — usually at the worst possible time. To prevent these pitfalls, our world-class software engineers work constantly to strengthen our solutions.

What Our Customers Say
"Check out Axiom's Microsoft Office Importer. We suffered through the chronically buggy XL2CAD for years befor finding it. Great program, easy interface, and unmatched tech support."
Brian Hackett
GHT Ltd
“I’ve used Axiom’s Microsoft Office Importer for years. We currently use it with our tables for roadway elevations. We do elevation tabulation sheets. One spreadsheet can have 40 rows of information or more, covering several miles of highway, with several sheets. When I’m done using Microsoft Office Importer on them, they LOOK REALLY NICE, and they have A LOT of information. And every time we make an update, it updates our work automatically, it references the updates right in. I’ll tell you, we have A LOT of sheets.
“In the past, it would take one professional several days to get the job done. But when I used Microsoft Office Importer, I did it in half a day. Mine looked just as professional. So we have simply abandoned the old way of doing it.
“Microsoft Office Importer formats the sheets exactly how I want them. When there is a time constraint — which is always — using Microsoft Office Importer has been critical for us. Now we can get more done. Microsoft Office Importer gets all the rows right. We reference the spreadsheet in, and it updates perfectly. You can reformat it just the way you want it, every single time. It follows the CAD format just the way we want it. Our projects are custom jobs, so perfection is key. I’m a lifelong fan.”
Abe Arollo
CAD Manager
AECOM
“Per project, the amount of time Microsoft Office Importer saves varies, but on our most recent project, we have saved a day’s worth of work per spreadsheet, especially if we have to update and add a column or add a row. On an average project, we have at least 11–12 tables and spreadsheets.
“To say it in a different way, your Microsoft Office Importer tool saved us an estimated three months of full-time work on just one project. It saves quite a bit of money and time. Without Microsoft Office Importer, we’d have to have one person working full time.”
