for the style problem, i send it again.
Hi
For one yearbook editing system, which buid the excel file for printing, i have used the poi to generate excel file. The
sheet built should fit the size for paper accurately( +- 2pixels ), like A4 paper or others...
it s a rough road in finding the converter for Pixels-Excel Column Width Units changing.
at first(2008.04), i found a solution from the mail list Excel column widths - an almost complete solution/explanation , and it made me so happy that it make me ride out the storm.
soon(2008.05), i found it can't meet the requirements in my system. so i set the column width by hand in the excel sheet, and observer it, find the law.and then write a new algorithm to do it ...
i m so lucky, that, at the end of the system developing, yesterday, i found the algorithm more accurately and more simply. the column width is muti-256, which 7pixels equals 256 excel column width units, but in the 7 pixels, it has a map(not average increasing):36,73,109,146,182,219,256.
i don't know if it can do well in the other environment, my computer is xp, and 96dpi. maybe it s useful to someone who do the same job as mine.
the code:
package name.xio.util.poi;
/**
* the units converter for excel
* @author xio[
[hidden email]]
*
*/
public class MSExcelUtil {
public static final short EXCEL_COLUMN_WIDTH_FACTOR = 256;
public static final int UNIT_OFFSET_LENGTH = 7;
public static final int[] UNIT_OFFSET_MAP = new int[] { 0, 36, 73, 109, 146, 182, 219 };
/**
* pixel units to excel width units(units of 1/256th of a character width)
* @param pxs
* @return
*/
public static short pixel2WidthUnits(int pxs) {
short widthUnits = (short) (EXCEL_COLUMN_WIDTH_FACTOR * (pxs / UNIT_OFFSET_LENGTH));
widthUnits += UNIT_OFFSET_MAP[(pxs % UNIT_OFFSET_LENGTH)];
return widthUnits;
}
/**
* excel width units(units of 1/256th of a character width) to pixel units
* @param widthUnits
* @return
*/
public static int widthUnits2Pixel(short widthUnits) {
int pixels = (widthUnits / EXCEL_COLUMN_WIDTH_FACTOR) * UNIT_OFFSET_LENGTH;
int offsetWidthUnits = widthUnits % EXCEL_COLUMN_WIDTH_FACTOR;
pixels += Math.round((float) offsetWidthUnits / ((float) EXCEL_COLUMN_WIDTH_FACTOR / UNIT_OFFSET_LENGTH));
return pixels;
}
}
