What is new in this release?

The long awaited version of Aspose.Cells for Java 8.0.0 has been released. This release supports optimizing memory usage when working with big Microsoft Excel files with large data sets. When building a workbook with large data sets, or reading a big template file, the total amount of RAM the process will use is always a concern. Aspose.Cells provides measures that can be adopted to cope with the challenge. Aspose.Cells provides some relevant options to lower, reduce and optimize memory usage. For example, the MemorySetting. MEMORY_PREFERENCE option optimizes memory use for the cells data to decrease the overall memory cost. Aspose.Cells also allows to get/set the time of generating the PDF documents for Excel to PDF conversion, sometimes you might need to set your desired custom DateTime for the PDF files. There is another valuable Microsoft Excel’s features is to show formulas instead of values in a worksheet. You can show formulas instead of the calculated values in Microsoft Excel using the Show Formulas option from the Formulas ribbon. Once, you enable it, Microsoft Excel displays formulas inside the worksheet. We have added a number of enhancements and fixes to this release. We have also fixed some exceptions which were thrown when reading and writing Excel files and rendering images from worksheets. We have improved the chart to image and sheet to image modules and fixed issues with manipulating charts and shapes as well. Several other important issues have also been addressed.
