Summary

  • align Java XLSX output with Microsoft 365 for repeated print-title rows, implicit Letter-to-A4 page mapping, Verdana font metrics, theme tint, native bold, and multiline cells
  • add focused six-page O365/Java/LibreOffice visual evidence for XlsxIssue77_Template1
  • bump Java parent, library, CLI, and documentation examples to 0.1.3

Validation

  • mvn -B -ntp -f minipdf-java/pom.xml clean verify (36 tests passed)
  • mvn -B -ntp -f minipdf-java/pom.xml -Prelease '-Dgpg.skip=true' clean verify
  • java -jar minipdf-java/minipdf-cli/target/minipdf-cli-0.1.3.jar --version
  • focused Java issue XLSX benchmark: overall 0.9672, text 1.0000, visual 0.9180, pages 6/6

Release note

The Maven Central deployment remains intentionally pending until this PR is merged and GPG is unlocked in a clean main checkout.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Improved XLSX-to-PDF rendering with repeating title rows, separate media and layout page sizing, Verdana font support, italic and bold-italic styling, tint-aware colors, and more accurate row heights.
    • Added support for rendering multi-range pages and improved content positioning.
  • Documentation

    • Updated Java and CLI installation examples to reference version 0.1.3 across supported languages.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for XLSX conversion with unspecified paper size, including page dimensions, page count, and extracted text validation.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The XLSX renderer adds repeated title rows, separate layout and media geometry, Verdana and italic font handling, tint-aware colors, and updated text layout. Tests validate A4 output. Maven references, documentation, and benchmark reports use version 0.1.3.

Changes

XLSX rendering and release update

Layer / File(s) Summary
Page layout and repeated rows
minipdf-java/minipdf/src/main/java/io/github/minisoftware/minipdf/internal/xlsx/PoiXlsxRenderer.java
The renderer repeats title rows, renders multiple row ranges, separates layout and media dimensions, applies output transforms, and positions pictures per range.
Typography and color resolution
minipdf-java/minipdf/src/main/java/io/github/minisoftware/minipdf/internal/xlsx/PoiXlsxRenderer.java
Font resolution supports Verdana variants and italic styles. Row heights, line sizing, synthetic bold, and tinted colors are updated.
XLSX validation and benchmark reports
minipdf-java/minipdf/src/test/java/io/github/minisoftware/minipdf/ClassicFixtureSmokeTest.java, artifacts/java-benchmark/issue/xlsx/report/*
The smoke test checks A4 output, six pages, and expected text. Reports now describe XlsxIssue77_Template1 and its updated comparison metrics.
Java 0.1.3 version alignment
pom.xml, minipdf-java/pom.xml, minipdf-java/minipdf/pom.xml, minipdf-java/minipdf-cli/pom.xml, minipdf-java/minipdf-cli/src/main/java/io/github/minisoftware/minipdf/cli/MiniPdfCommand.java, README.md, minipdf-java/README.md, documents/README.*.md
Maven metadata, CLI output, installation instructions, and localized quick-start examples use version 0.1.3.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2182f

This update improves XLSX layout fidelity, but workbooks with registered Verdana variants or hidden rows can still render with incorrect typography or shifted pagination. These correctness issues should be corrected before release.

🟡 Changes recommended

The new repeating-title-row logic can produce inverted/empty row ranges without an explicit guard, and it should be tightened to avoid relying on downstream tolerance of invalid ranges.

Once you've addressed the issues Copilot identified, you can request another Copilot review.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the Java XLSX rendering pipeline to better match Microsoft 365 output (notably for repeating print-title rows and paper-size/media-box handling) and prepares the Java release version bump to 0.1.3, including refreshed benchmark evidence.

Changes:

  • Improve Java XLSX rendering (repeating title rows, media-box vs layout sizing, Verdana font handling, theme tint, bold/italic font resolution, multiline layout tweaks).
  • Add a focused Java smoke test covering default A4 media size for an XLSX fixture and verifying expected page count/text.
  • Bump Java parent/library/CLI/docs examples to 0.1.3 and refresh Java issue XLSX benchmark report artifacts.

Preserve hidden rows as zero height.

Row.getZeroHeight() marks a hidden row. This branch assigns it the default height, so it can add vertical space and shift pagination or repeated title rows. Return 0.0f for hidden rows. Use the default height only when row == null. Add a hidden-row regression test.

Select each registered Verdana face exactly.

These calls use FontSet.load, which matches registered names with font.getKey()::contains. A registered verdanab, verdanai, or verdanaz also matches the regular verdana alias. When several Verdana faces are registered, the regular face can bind to a non-regular font.

Match normalized registered names exactly before any fallback matching. Add a test that registers all four Verdana faces.
