Java: Convert Excel to TIFF

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) is a standard image format created in the mid-1980s for saving high-quality color images on different computer platforms. Since the TIFF format is widely used in faxing, scanning, and other document exchange processing, conversion from Excel to TIFF may be frequently required in your daily work. This article will demonstrate how to programmatically convert Excel to TIFF using Spire.XLS for Java.

• Convert a Whole Excel Worksheet to TIFF
• Convert a Specific Cell Range to TIFF

Install Spire.XLS for Java

First of all, you're required to add the Spire.Xls.jar file as a dependency in your Java program. The JAR file can be downloaded from this link. If you use Maven, you can easily import the JAR file in your application by adding the following code to your project's pom.xml file.

Convert a Whole Excel Worksheet to TIFF

The detailed steps are as follows:

• Create a Workbook instance.
• Load a sample Excel file using Workbook.loadFromFile() method.
• Get a specified worksheet using Workbook.getWorksheets().get() method.
• Convert the specified worksheet to TIFF using Worksheet.saveToTiff(java.lang.String fileName) method.

import com.spire.xls.Workbook;
import com.spire.xls.Worksheet;

public class ConvertExcelToTIFF {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        //Create a Workbook instance
        Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

        //Load a sample Excel file
        workbook.loadFromFile("input.xlsx");

        //Get the first worksheet
        Worksheet sheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);

        //Save the first worksheet to TIFF
        sheet.saveToTiff("SheetToTiff.tiff");

    }
}

Convert a Specific Cell Range to TIFF

The detailed steps are as follows:

• Create a Workbook instance.
• Load a sample Excel file using Workbook.loadFromFile() method.
• Get a specified worksheet using Workbook.getWorksheets().get() method.
• Convert a specific cell range in the worksheet to TIFF using Worksheet.saveToTiff(java.lang.String fileName, int firstRow, int firstColumn, int lastRow, int lastColumn) method.

import com.spire.xls.Workbook;
import com.spire.xls.Worksheet;

public class CellRangeToTIFF {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        //Create a Workbook instance
        Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

        //Load a sample Excel file
        workbook.loadFromFile("input.xlsx");

        //Get the first worksheet
        Worksheet sheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);
        
        //Save a specific cell range in the first worksheet to TIFF
        sheet.saveToTiff("CellRangeToTiff.tiff",1,1,2,7);
    }
}
