I create a .pdf of the excel file and then place it using the drawing tool. The downside is that I have to 're-publish' the .pdf every time I make a change to the excel file - but hey, that's a lot easier than re-scanning it, right?

Is there no longer a way to place you Excel spread sheets into plotmaker? I cant seem to do this like in 9? if not is there any other easy way other that printing and scanning the doc, any way to keep the file live?
