I've been searching for longer than I care to admit and am surprised this isn't a solved problem.
We have nests of parts in Autocad, each with a mtext block as a label. We want to extract this information to then be usable by some printing software. Autocad (extract every mtext block) to Excel (each block as it's own row) to Dymo Label software is how I envision it.
All the existing lisp or vba code I find extract the mtext contents which has extra formatting syntax along with it. Is there an easy way to export just plain text from mtext blocks? I found some sample vba code that steps through every mtext block here https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-forum/export-mtext-contents/td-p/6266304 But that still leaves me with how to work with the syntax filled mtext contents.
