XLSX

XLSX is the standard spreadsheet file format used since Microsoft Excel 2008. XLSX files are created using the Open XML standard. Each cell in an XLSX file can have a different formatting.

Layout Options

Worksheet

If a page contains tables and text, all is placed inside the same worksheet.

If the document being processed contains more than one page, each page will be processed in the same manner.

This option is useful when processing tables of different sizes and different headings.

Other options

The font type, size and type style are maintained across the recognition process.

The tabs and the alignment of each block are recreated.

The text blocks and columns aren't recreated; the paragraphs just follow each other.

Tables are recaptured correctly.

Pictures are not captured.

All data inside the tables is recaptured; any data outside the tables is not.

As a result, you can execute arithmetical operations on those cells. The text cells (in any table) remain text.

Note that only figures inside tables are encoded as numbers.

Readiris wordwraps the recognized text until a new paragraph starts, and reglues hyphenated words at the end of a line.

Note: in a spreadsheet application, this option recreates the background color of each cell.

Page Size

The same Page Size options are available as for DOCX, ODT, RTF.
