Hi @alexcruz8553 ,

 

If you want to paste AutoCAD drawing to Excel spreadsheet, you can print from AutoCAD to PDF and then insert PDF in Excel.

Hi @alexcruz8553 ,

 

You don't need to copy PDF.

You need to create PDF from your drawing in AutoCAD and then insert it to Excel

@alexcruz8553 On Mac you cannot use copy - paste method to insert drawing data from AutoCAD to Excel, because this is OS specific functionality (AutoCAD for Mac and macOS cannot convert DWG data format to one of vector formats that Excel can read).
The only one way on Mac is to export drawing to PDF file from AutoCAD and then insert resulting PDF to Excel. Of course, you will not be able to edit inserted drawing by double-clicking on it as you can do on Windows side if you are using OLE technology.
