Convert Specific Worksheet Cells to Image

This section aims at providing a detail solution for developers on how to convert specific worksheet cells to image via this .NET Excel component Spire.XLS for .NET in C#, VB.NET. This Excel library helps us quickly convert certain excel cells to different image formats such as jpeg, png, bmp, tiff, gif, ico, emf, exif etc.

When we convert worksheet to image, Spire.XLS for .NET provides us a method: Spire.Xls.Worksheet.SaveToImage(int firstRow, int firstColumn, int lastRow, int lastColumn); As we see, there are four parameters passed in this method. These four parameters determine the certain range of cells. After deciding the cell range, we can successfully convert cells to image. Now, let us see the whole task step by step.

Step 1: Create a template Excel Workbook in MS Excel

I create a new Excel file in MS Excel and add some data which have different formats in the first sheet, here is a screenshot of created file.

Excel to Image

Step 2: Download and Install Spire.XLS for .NET

Spire.XLS for .NET is an Excel Api which enables users to quickly generate, read, edit and manipulate Excel files on .NET Platform. Here you can download Spire.XLS for .NET and install it on your development computer. After installing it, Spire.XLS for .NET will run in evaluation mode which is the same when you install other Spire components. This evaluation mode has no time limit.

Step 3: Create a project and Add References

We can create a new project of Console Application either in C# or VB.NET. I create in C#, but we can choose VB.NET too.

In this project, we need to add references in our project. Apart from adding System.Drawing, we will use Spire.XLS for .NET, so we also have to add Spire.Xls.dll, Spire.Common.dll and Spire.License.dll in our download Bin folder of Spire.Xls. Here we can see the default path: "..\Spire.XLS\Bin\NET4.0\Spire.XLS.dll"

Step 4: Convert Specific Worksheet Cells to Image

In this step, first we can initialize a new object of the class Spire.Xls.Workbook, then, load the template Excel file. Since I want to convert cells in the first sheet to image, I need get the first worksheet data in Excel file. You also can get other worksheet data. Finally specify cell range and save the cells in the range as image file. Spire.XLS for .NET supports 12 image formats: Bmp, Emf, Equals, Exif, Gif, Icon, Jpeg, MemoryBmp, Png, ReferenceEquals, Tiff and Wmf.

[C#]
using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Imaging;
using Spire.Xls;
using Spire.Xls.Converter;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            //Initialize a new Workbook object
            Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
            //Open Template Excel file
            workbook.LoadFromFile(@"..\excel to image.xlsx");
            //Get the first wirksheet in Excel file
            Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
            //Specify Cell Ranges and Save to certain Image formats
            sheet.SaveToImage(1, 1, 6, 3).Save("image1.png",ImageFormat.Png);
            sheet.SaveToImage(7, 1, 12, 3).Save("image2.jpeg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);
            sheet.SaveToImage(13, 1, 18, 3).Save("image3.bmp", ImageFormat.Bmp);
        }
    }
}
          
[VB.NET]
Imports System.Drawing
Imports System.Drawing.Imaging
Imports Spire.Xls
Imports Spire.Xls.Converter

Namespace ConsoleApplication1
	Class Program
		Private Shared Sub Main(args As String())
			'Initialize a new Workbook object
			Dim workbook As New Workbook()
			'Open Template Excel file
			workbook.LoadFromFile("..\excel to image.xlsx")
			'Get the first wirksheet in Excel file
			Dim sheet As Worksheet = workbook.Worksheets(0)
			'Specify Cell Ranges and Save to certain Image formats
			sheet.SaveToImage(1, 1, 6, 3).Save("image1.png", ImageFormat.Png)
			sheet.SaveToImage(7, 1, 12, 3).Save("image2.jpeg", ImageFormat.Jpeg)
			sheet.SaveToImage(13, 1, 18, 3).Save("image3.bmp", ImageFormat.Bmp)
		End Sub
	End Class
End Namespace
