Excel size decreases on resaving.

[ashanaik]

Hi Jason ,

When i generate excel using below code the file size is 79kb. (STEP 1)

If i open the excel, do nothing and save it. The file size decreases to 33kb. (STEP 2)

What could be reason for it and how can i avoid this?

After extracting the excels i obeserved that theres size variation for drawing.xml's. Step 2 Xml is formatted and has leading and trailing spaces. Where as Step 1 xmls are TRIMMED .

Code :

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, Exception {

String outputfilepath =System.getProperty("user.dir") + "/sample-docs/outline5.xlsx";
String imagefilePath = "D:\\Checkout\\Images\\image.jpg" ;

SpreadsheetMLPackage pkg = SpreadsheetMLPackage.createPackage();
WorksheetPart worksheet = pkg.createWorksheetPart(new PartName("/xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml"), "Sheet1", 1);

// Create Drawing part and add to sheet
Drawing drawingPart = new Drawing();
Relationship drawingRel = worksheet.addTargetPart(drawingPart);

// Add anchor XML to worksheet
org.xlsx4j.sml.CTDrawing drawing = org.xlsx4j.jaxb.Context.getsmlObjectFactory().createCTDrawing();
worksheet.getJaxbElement().setDrawing(drawing);
drawing.setId( drawingRel.getId() );

// Create image part and add to Drawing part
BinaryPartAbstractImage imagePart
= BinaryPartAbstractImage.createImagePart(pkg, drawingPart,
FileUtils.readFileToByteArray(new File(imagefilePath) ));
String imageRelID = imagePart.getSourceRelationship().getId();

drawingPart.setJaxbElement(
buildDrawingPartContentFromXmlString(imageRelID));

// Save the xlsx
SaveToZipFile saver = new SaveToZipFile(pkg);
saver.save(outputfilepath);
System.out.println("\n\n done .. " + outputfilepath);
}

public static org.docx4j.dml.spreadsheetdrawing.CTDrawing buildDrawingPartContentFromXmlString(String imageRelID) throws JAXBException {
