What is new in this release?
We are pleased to announce the new release of Aspose.Cells for .NET 8.1.2. This new release contains some useful features and other improvements. It also includes over 20 fixes and other enhancements. Aspose.Cells APIs generally use TrueType Fonts (TTFs) when a task involves rendering spreadsheets to images or portable formats such as PDF. Aspose.Cells detects which fonts are required by scanning the spreadsheet styles and tries to find the required fonts on the machine where conversion is taking place. There could be situations when the required fonts are not available. In such cases, Aspose.Cells substitutes the required font with a similar available one. With this release, Aspose.Cells provides the means to receive warnings if a font substitution has occurred during the spreadsheet rendering process. This mechanism is available through a set of classes, interfaces and properties that have been added with version 8.1.2. In the new version, we have fixed a few exceptions that occurred while writing Microsoft Excel files to PDF and ODS. In this release, several important issues have been addressed. For example, issues around manipulating style and formatting, rendering and manipulating pivot tables, manipulating shapes, rendering images from Excel worksheets, manipulating charts, rendering images files from charts, Smart Markers and exporting Excel workbooks to PDF format have been resolved. We have also fixed a few issues regarding Aspose.Cells formula calculation engine. This release includes few enhanced features and plenty of bug fixes as listed below
