Draw Slicer while rendering Excel to PDF with C++

Draw Slicer while rendering Excel to PDF

If you have an Excel file which has a slicer applied to it and you want to export the Excel to PDF with the slicer settings, Aspose.Cells now supports this by default. You simply export the Excel file with a slicer to PDF, and the generated PDF will show the slicer applied.

The following sample code loads the sample Excel file that contains an existing slicer. It then saves the workbook as output PDF file. The following screenshot compares the source Excel file and the generated PDF file.

Sample Code

#include <iostream>
#include "Aspose.Cells.h"
using namespace Aspose::Cells;

int main()
{
    Aspose::Cells::Startup();

    // For complete examples and data files, please go to https://github.com/aspose-cells/Aspose.Cells-for-C

    // Source directory path
    U16String srcDir(u"..\\Data\\01_SourceDirectory\\");
    
    // Output directory path
    U16String outDir(u"..\\Data\\02_OutputDirectory\\");
    
    // Path of input excel file
    U16String inputFilePath = srcDir + u"SampleSlicerChart.xlsx";

    // Path of output pdf file
    U16String outputFilePath = outDir + u"SampleSlicerChart.pdf";

    // Create workbook from the excel file
    Workbook workbook(inputFilePath);

    // Save the workbook as a PDF file
    workbook.Save(outputFilePath, SaveFormat::Pdf);

    std::cout << "Workbook saved as PDF successfully!" << std::endl;

    Aspose::Cells::Cleanup();
}
