Map table text elements to a different pen table?

Is it possible to map table text elements to a different pen table when printing?

    Enhancement 330702: Request the ability to resymbolize text in a Table element using a pen table.



  • can you be more detailed in what you mean...?

    If your text is specific to level names and those levels only  contain text, then a custom pentable  can change its symbology on or at print ie colour , weight. or non print.

    Even some text substitution ie date, file name, scale , user, references can be done via pen table, but you cannot change  fonts or text size.

    There was a free tool that could force  text size , fonts, and cells size etc on printing scale called "Scale Manager " search in AskInga for it .. I use to use this alot  in previous employments, especially for lot and  property numbers, these were always too small in the purchased cadastral files... it has gone out of style since scale annotation has taken off... but /i like how it  doesnt  change anything its just at  view and print time when you use the  tool...

    Once you read the documentation and  do some tests you'll get the principle  of it a quickly...

    Good luck..
