How to fix Microsoft Excel font style and font size mismatch?

I need to create an economic analysis output information pool in an Excel spreadsheet I prepared in German Language. When creating the salary table of various occupational groups in Germany, I place the results of the calculations on the stundenlohnrechner website in rows and columns. However when I copy the output values ​​of the site while I want to prepare it in Times New Roman style and 13 points, I am forced to 19.5 point size and Arial font, which is the style used by the site. I can easily change the font size on Excel, but when I want to change the font size at the same time, the entire table I prepared shifts. How can I make an automatic adjustment to automatically copy a writing according to the default values ​​that I have prepared beforehand when copying something from a website? Since I usually work on financial statements, I usually need to copy and insert numbers into tables. And I have this problem a lot, especially with comma numbers that indicate price or salary.

I am sure there is a very easy and automatic solution to this, I am waiting for your solution suggestions: The licensed Excel program I use is in German and I usually have no problem quoting from English language sites, but this problem often occurs when quoting from German websites. I wonder if making English the default in the language settings will have any effect on solving this problem?

    Hi,

    How did you import the web to Excel? Did you use Power Query or other methods?

    If you copy and paste directly, you can keep source formatting.

    Please be a bit more precise to explain your requirement or you can upload a screenshot so that I can get more accurate solutions to this problem. I’m glad to help and follow up your reply.
