Conversion (18)
This article demonstrates how to set dpi on x and y axis when converting an Excel worksheet to an image using Spire.XLS for Java.
import com.spire.xls.*;
public class ConvertExcelToImage {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Create a Workbook object
Workbook wb = new Workbook();
//Load an Excel file
wb.loadFromFile("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\data.xlsx");
//Set dpi on x and y axis
wb.getConverterSetting().setXDpi(300);
wb.getConverterSetting().setYDpi(300);
//Declare a Worksheet variable
Worksheet sheet;
//Loop through the worksheets
for (int i = 0; i < wb.getWorksheets().size(); i++) {
//Get the specific worksheet
sheet = wb.getWorksheets().get(i);
//Convert worksheet to image
sheet.saveToImage("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\Output\\image-" + i + ".png");
}
}
}

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
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.
- Java
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.
- Java
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);
}
}

Convert a Specific Cell Range to Image
Spire.XLS for Java supports converting a specific cell range to an image by using the Worksheet.toImage (int firstRow,int firstColumn,int lastRow,int lastColumn) method. Detailed steps are listed below.
- Create a Workbook instance.
- Load a sample Excel document using Workbook.loadFromFile() method.
- Get a specific worksheet of the document using Workbook.getWorksheets().get() method.
- Create a BufferedImage instance.
- Convert a specific cell range to the ButteredImage object using Worksheet.toImage () method.
- Save the BufferedImage object to a .png image.
- Java
import com.spire.xls.Workbook;
import com.spire.xls.Worksheet;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import java.io.*;
public class SpecificCellsToImage {
