Data Link Global Text Scaling

I am using 2020 and when i use data link to import my excel List of Material, all my text does not come in the right scale. I have to change the text size in every cell manually. Is there a work around to make the cell text size change globally? Attached is how the data link comes into autocad and how it should look in the cell from excel.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

The issue here is getting the font you want into the table. True Type fonts can give you problems; using the Alternate Font setting tells AutoCAD which font to use as an alternative. You can go through the Options menu ( Options > Files tab > Text Editor, Dictionary ) , or just type FontAlt on the Command line and tell AutoCAD which font to use.

>> Is there a work around to make the cell text size change globally?

To change the text size, select a cell, then hold Shift and drag to select all other cells. With all cells selected, go to Properties and change the text height.

also you can follow here another way that may help . >> Click <<

I am getting the font that I want, the text size is the issue I am having a problem with., it comes in so small having to unlock each cell and change the font seems very in-efficient. The match cell command won't work either because my excel column widths are different. I tried creating a new font file with the text height i want as well and tried to assign that as well but that doesn't work either.

Did you ever figure this out?

Just upgraded to 2020 and this is what I have:
