Plan_ShoppeParticipantI use ProArchitect, V.12 but I haven’t figured out how to create a block sheet with performance speicifications on it as a base sheet I can use in multiple projects. I can import the specifications from a word processor application as a .jpg file, but it won’t let me change the text. I want to have a whole sheet of specifications formatted in columns similar to newspaper print, with the option to update or change the text, font, color, etc. as necessary without altering the formatting or over all placement on the sheet. Can someone advise me how to best achieve this? Thank you.

FynrDzynrParticipantI’ve lost count of the years I’ve been dreaming of being able to link/embed spreadsheet data. Yes, I did that all the time in their “legacy programmes” (APDesign and Build!) back in the ’90’s.
pdf as an intermediary is a QA nightmare.
The only other option is to create a massive block with heaps of attributes.
sry, not much help!

But if you need to upload a bld file, here’s what I tried. Renamed the .bkp file as a jpg. Use it as your Comment Image. Community accepted it OK but obviously couldn’t display. Other users can SAVEAS .bld then open it . . .
hth . . . just another in a long list of workarounds
