Hello,

Thanks for your inquiry.
The free version does not require a license, and it is a forever free product for commercial and personal use.
In addition, Free version is limited to 5 sheets per workbook and 200 rows per sheet. This limitation is enforced during reading or writing XLS or PDF files. When converting Excel files to other formats, such as PDF/XPS/Images, you can only get the first 3 pages of PDF/XPS/Images. If your document exceeds the limitation, you can evaluate our commercial version from the following links for the latest version of Spire.Xls. We are willing to provide a temporary license (one month free) to help you remove the warning message. If you need it, you can contact our sales team (sales@e-iceblue.com).

Download links:
1) Spire.Xls 12.8.1 for .Net
2) Spire.Xls 12.8.4 for Java

Sincerely
Abel

Hello,

Thanks for your feedback.
Our FreeSpire.Pdf is free forever and doesn't require license. You can add password protection programmatically to existing excel fils without any limiation using FreeSpire.Xls. And I put the code below for your reference. In addition, what programming languages do you use? If you have any issue, just feel free to contact us.

c#:
Code: Select all
/Create a workbook
            Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

            //Load the document from disk
            workbook.LoadFromFile(@"..\..\data\AccessCell.xlsx");

            //Protect Workbook
            workbook.Protect("e-iceblue");

            //Save the document
            string output = @"..\..\data\ProtectWorkbook.xlsx";
            workbook.SaveToFile(output, ExcelVersion.Version2013);


Java:

Code: Select all
   //Create a workbook
        Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

        //Load the document from disk
        workbook.loadFromFile("data/worksheetSample1.xlsx");

        //Protect Workbook
        workbook.protect("e-iceblue");

        //Save the document
        String output = "output/protectWorkbook_result.xlsx";
        workbook.saveToFile(output, ExcelVersion.Version2013);
