Width from HTML tag is not honoured

Aspose.Cells Product Family

Hi,
I am generating a workbook from HTML. The width attribute in the HTML is not considered in the workbook created.

I have attached the snip of my code.

HTMLLoadOptions loadOptions = new HTMLLoadOptions(LoadFormat.Html);
using (var stream = new MemoryStream(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(htmlData)))
{
Workbook wb = new Workbook(stream, loadOptions);
var sheet = wb.Worksheets[0];
sheet.AutoFitRows();
using (var documentStream = new MemoryStream())
{
wb.Save(documentStream, SaveFormat.Xlsx);
}
workBooks.Add(wb);
}

Regards,
Amith Antony

@Amithantony,

Please share the source HTML file for our analysis here. Also please provide some snapshot showing the issue if possible.

I have attached the HTML I use also the excel generated. When the HTML is viewed in browser the table columns are with the given width. But in excel the column width is ignored.

@Amithantony,

Please try to set auto-fit rows and columns on while loading the HTML file, it will work better as I tested:
e.g
Sample code:

        HTMLLoadOptions opts = new HTMLLoadOptions(LoadFormat.Html);

opts.AutoFitColsAndRows = true;
Workbook workbook = new Workbook(“e:\test2\Table Width Sample.html”, opts);
string output = “e:\test2\out1.xlsx”;
workbook.Save(output);

Let us know if you still find the issue.

Hi @Amjad_Sahi,
I face one more issue in the same xslx generation. The multiline text is displayed as a single line.

I use the same HTML to generate PDF document and it works fine.

@Amithantony,

Thanks for the screenshots.

Well, I noticed this but we think it is a minor thing as setting HTMLLoadOptions.AutoFitColsAndRows attribute to true might not mimic 100% with your original HTML file, so you have to live with it.
