Revit to Autocad- Text not aligning to chart

Anonymous

When I import the sheet with the schedule into Autocad preserving editability, the text shows up in Autocad penetrating the boundary lines on the schedule. The text is in fact editable from revit to autocad, however it is missing the backspaces between some text thereby penetrating through the boundaries with that missing break.

A similar problem is Autocad doesn't read capitalization applied off of Revits Uppercase command. Is there an easy fix solution to this inside of Revit or Autocad?

 

Thanks!

Using the uppercase command from the text tab is lost in translation into autocad, hard typing uppercase letters works just fine. Does that make sense? The real issue is scheduled and text come into revit penetrating through the boundary lines.

What is the font being used for the schedule text?

I use Arial and the default CAD export automatic font mapping.  No problems so I don't know what else to suggest.  Can you share the exported schedule DWG?

Did you preserve editability? I don’t believe export to preserve edits respects the bounds applied by schedules. So a break would need to be applied manually

No. I chose preserve Visual fidelity.

Yeah, I need to preserve editability so I can make edits in autocad maintaining the multi line text. If only revit can have a toggle to preserve breaks in text with editability this would solve this issue for translation.
