Draw Timeline while rendering Excel to PDF with C++

Draw Timeline while rendering Excel to PDF

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

The following sample code loads the sample Excel file that contains an existing timeline. 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();

    // Load sample Excel file
    U16String inputFilePath(u"input.xlsx");
    std::unique_ptr<Workbook> wb = std::make_unique<Workbook>(inputFilePath);

    // Save file to pdf
    U16String outputFilePath(u"out.pdf");
    wb->Save(outputFilePath, SaveFormat::Pdf);

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

    Aspose::Cells::Cleanup();
    return 0;
}

#include <aspose.cells.h>

using namespace Aspose::Cells;

int main() {
    Aspose::Cells::Startup();
    // Load the sample Excel file
    Workbook workbook(u"input.xlsx");

    // Save the workbook as a PDF file
    workbook.Save(u"output.pdf", SaveFormat::Pdf);
    Aspose::Cells::Cleanup();
    return 0;
