Microsoft Excel (2007) Charts in Illustrator CS2

In the past I was able to take any charts from Microsoff Excel 2003 - select them, copy them, and paste them into CS2.  The company recently upgraded to 2007 as a stepping stone to 2010. Now when I copy charts they either come over as a rasterized image or all of the fonts get changed to "Small Fonts" and all of the kerning and spacing is messed up. I have tried PDFing them and that works to a certain extent, but the graphs from Excel come over as rasterized images - no good for me. I need to be able to modify the charts as needed in Illustrator.
Thanks for any help!

I tried to replicate your problem, not having CS2, I tried 2003 to CS5 and 2007 to CS4 and it worked ok in both cases. In excel you can copy data or chart as pictures but it is not the default behavior, try pasting inside excel in another sheet, to see if it is still editable, if it isn't probably it is being copied as picture.

  • Excel 2007 graph into Illustrator CS2

    I have discovered an issue with Illustrator CS2 and Excel 2007...when I try to edit a graph in Illustrator (either by cutting and pasting or printing to a pdf and opening in Illustrator), all of the graph lines are no longer lines. They are individual shapes with fills instead of strokes. Does anyone know of a way of fixing this? I edit graphs for a living and this is a tragic discovery! I had no problems with Excel 2003. Would this problem go away if I upgraded to CS3?

    Having the same problem with Illustrator CS3. All Excel 3D graph/chart are individual shapes. Looks horrible.
    Don't have Office 2003 installed. So sure if it only an Excel 2007 issue.
    No problem with Excel 2004 on the Mac.

  • Ipad Numbers apps unsuccessfully importing Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet

    Here are what I did. I first sent a Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet (the format is xlsx) to my email. And then I opened it via Numbers in iPad Mini. The Numbers was importing the Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet. It took about 2-3 minutes importing the file. The importing status bar was indicating the progress. When the importing status bar was about completed and then the Numbers apps closed itself. I first thought it completed importing the file. I opened the Numbers apps, there was nothing. I attempted opening it for several times but it ended up the same. That seemed the Numbers was having a problem importing Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet. By the way, there are several tabs in the Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet. Would that be a reason why Numbers couldn't import the file successfully? Or maybe Numbers only import Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet with single tab in the file? Please help!

    It's just general worksheet. No pivot table, no VBA logic. But there are several tabs. One of the tabs has formulas linked to other tabs. For example, formula like: '=Sheet2!B2'.
    Its possible either of those could be a factor. I'm not sure if there is a top end limit on the number of tabs Numbers will handle (at least haven't run into to it yet). The formula syntax you have does not match what number presents, so that could be the issue, but I seem to recall it has not had an issue converting in the past. Could be wrth a look however.

  • How do i select nonadjacent range in Microsoft Excel 2007 on Macbook?

    Hello
    I have 1st generation black Macbook and I am running Microsoft Excel 2007 via VMware Fusion. I am currently taking a class of excel 2007 and I would love to use my Macbook to do assignments, but I have problem selecting nonadjacent range cell, such as A1:A5;F1:G5.
    In my class, I would use Dell base pc Windows XP: I would select the adjacent range A1:A5, then while holding down the "Ctrl" key, I would select the adjacent range F1:G5, yet when I were to do that with my Macbook, it will work as if I'm clicking the secondary right click. I can not select nonadjacent range.
    I thought there must be a way to deactivate the secondary click function by pressing "Ctrl" key, but I'm not sure how I can do that.
    Is there anyway I can select nonadjacent range?
    thank you for your time.

    Well then, I believe Yosi should try different combinatins of keys to get it to do what he wants it to do. I just poked around with a few keys and got it to work. If Yosi is new to macs, then I think that is what I would suggest doing. Poke around and you will find what works.
    I was not trying to say that because it worked in Numbers that it would be exactly like that for Excel.
    If that is how it sounded, I apologize.
    Yosi, keep trying different combinations, you will find something that works.
    Good Luck.

  • Autocad 2010 drawing pasted in microsoft excel 2007 spread sheet not visible after converting excel

    Hello, I am having an issue with Autocad 2010 drawings not showing up in a pdf document. Normally, I cut and paste part of an Autocad 2010 drawing into a Microsoft Excel 2007 spread sheet. Then, using Adobe Distiller, I convert the Excel spread sheet into a pdf document for propriatary purposes. However, recently the drawing pasted into Excel will not fully appear on the pdf, the drawing is cut off past a certain point. The drawing will print normally in Excel, but in pdf will not print normally. If the drawing is shrunk below the "cut off" point, it appears normally. If the drawing is expanded above the "cut off" point, any additional image is lost. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem would be appreciated.

  • I want to download Microsoft excel 2007 on my I pad

    I. Want to download Microsoft excel 2007 on my iPad

    Other suggestions are good.
    Try Splashtop 2 - Remote  Desktop. If you're around wifi and have excel on your computer, this could work very well for you. If you have a cellular ipad you can connect for $1.00 a month or $10.00 a year. I suggest you google Splashtop and read tech media and user reviews. You'll find the app in the itunes app store.
    Hope this helps.

    The pdf document only shows the top left corner of the excel chart. When I print to pdf, it works fine. When I use the addin, it doesn't work.

    Not so much Excel (or, at least not so much that I remember) but I've read a

    You might want to check and make sure you have all MS Office updates installed, to fix any known bugs... plus make sure your version of Acrobat is fully up to date

    Hi,
    I did not have a look at all of your coding, but converting values from XSTRING to STRING can be done with the function modules containing an 'SCMS'. Have a look in SE37
