Office Connector - Excel Attachment Displaying Different Than File

    • Icon: Bug Bug

      I attached this excel file to Confluence, the views are very different. Some examples are:

      1) Font size are bigger on Confluence

      2) Font styles are different (ex: bold, italics, underline)
      Example: cell A6 is indented to display " -NY". However there are underlines showing in Confluence "__________-NY" as an indent

      3) Font colors are different

            Confluence 4.2 has a new Excel rendering engine that makes this a little better but it will never be perfect. The goal is to give you a convenient way to browse the information in the Excel Workbook inside of Confluence. We aren't trying to make it a perfect replica of how it looks inside Excel.

            I'm sorry if this is a problem.

            Hi Vincent,

            As you have suggested, I am keeping watch on this bug. Please keep me informed of any changes as my company intends to use Office Connector, more specifically the Excel Connector, in Confluence.

            Thanks,
            Kevin
