Spire.Xls offers ExcelFont class and developers can format the text of cells easily. By using RichText, we can add the text into cells and set font for it. Here comes to the steps of how to write rich text into excel cells.
Step 1: Create an excel document and get its first worksheet.
Workbook workbook = new Workbook(); Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
Step 2: Create the fonts and sent the format for each font.
//create a font and set the format to bold. ExcelFont fontBold = workbook.CreateFont(); fontBold.IsBold = true; //create a font and set the format to underline. ExcelFont fontUnderline = workbook.CreateFont(); fontUnderline.Underline = FontUnderlineType.Single; //create a font and set the format to italic. ExcelFont fontItalic = workbook.CreateFont(); fontItalic.IsItalic = true; //create a font and set the color to green. ExcelFont fontColor = workbook.CreateFont(); fontColor.KnownColor = ExcelColors.Green;
Step 3: Set the font for specified cell range.
RichText richText = sheet.Range["A1"].RichText; richText.Text="It is in Bold"; richText.SetFont(0, richText.Text.Length-1, fontBold); richText = sheet.Range["A2"].RichText; richText.Text = "It is underlined"; richText.SetFont(0, richText.Text.Length-1, fontUnderline); richText = sheet.Range["A3"].RichText; richText.Text = "It is Italic"; richText.SetFont(0, richText.Text.Length - 1, fontItalic); richText = sheet.Range["A4"].RichText; richText.Text = "It is Green"; richText.SetFont(0, richText.Text.Length - 1, fontColor);
Step 4: Save the document to file.
workbook.SaveToFile("Sample.xls",ExcelVersion.Version97to2003);
