hi,
we are having some problems with reading xls files, namely the number of prints, horzontal/vertical resolution, and possibly others are getting bogus values when reading an excel sheet (ie 26414 nr of prints).
i've tracked the problem down to being office 2007 related. when saving a xls sheet (in excel97-20003 format) this error occurs. this is unrelated to the orging of the document.
made in last save in result
excel 2007 excel 2007 fail
excel 2007 excel 2003 working
excel 2003 excel 2007 fail
excel 2003 excel 2003 working
its the last save that matters
(2003 --> 2007 --> 2003) works
it seems ms office writes something extra in the sheet causing the PAGERECORD data to become buggy.
this is most likely the cause of issue: #1766427
ive attached 4 simple xls and a litle java class to visualise the error.
