When i copy info from Excel and paste in to the Indesign table, it fill every next cell instead every cell.

Can anyone hell me fix this issue??

 

Correct answer Lovro Vudrag

I was copying data from a shared file from my team. When I download the Excel sheet and open it in the desktop app it works okay. Probably the online version has some problems then.

Thank You anyway!!

Do you have merged vertically cells or hidden rows?

Hi @Lovro Vudrag, I don't know the answer myself, but you will get much better help if you post sample files here, ie. an .indd containing a sample table, and an excel file with some sample data, and instructions for what cells you are copying. Then if we can reproduce the behaviour, we may have a good answer. Note that you must be able to reproduce your problem in the sample document, using your instructions. Often the process of creating the sample document will shed some light on the problem too.
