Apply Multiple Fonts in One Cell in Java

·

2 min read

In the previous articles, I've introduced how to apply different font styles in several different Excel cells using Free Spire.XLS for Java . Now this article will share how to apply multiple font styles in a single Excel cell by using same free API.

Import the Jar dependency
Method 1: Download the Free Spire.XLS for Java and unzip it, then add the Spire.Xls.jar file to your project as dependency.

Method 2: Directly add the jar dependency to maven project by adding the following configurations to the pom.xml.

<repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>com.e-iceblue</id>
            <name>e-iceblue</name>
            <url>http://repo.e-iceblue.com/nexus/content/groups/public/</url>
        </repository>
</repositories>
<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>e-iceblue</groupId>
        <artifactId>spire.xls.free</artifactId>
        <version>3.9.1</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

Sample Code

import com.spire.xls.*;

import java.awt.*;

public class ApplyMultiFontsInCell {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        //Create a Workbook instance
        Workbook wb = new Workbook();

        //Get the first worksheet
        Worksheet sheet = wb.getWorksheets().get(0);

        //Create first Excel font
        ExcelFont font1 = wb.createFont();
        font1.setFontName("Calibri");
        font1.setColor(Color.blue);
        font1.setSize(12f);
        font1.isItalic(true);

        //Create second Excel font
        ExcelFont font2 = wb.createFont();
        font2.setFontName("Times New Roman");
        font2.setColor(Color.BLACK);
        font2.setSize(12f);
        font2.isItalic(true);
        font2.setUnderline(FontUnderlineType.Double);

        //Create third Excel font
        ExcelFont font3 = wb.createFont();
        font3.setFontName("Arial");
        font3.setColor(Color.RED);
        font3.setSize(14f);
        font3.isBold(true);

        //Insert text to cell B5
        RichText richText = sheet.getCellRange("B5").getRichText();
        richText.setText("This is an example of how to apply multiple font styles in one Excel cell using Java.");

        //Apply three fonts to the text in the cell B5
        richText.setFont(0, 21, font1);
        richText.setFont(22, 55, font2);
        richText.setFont(56, 84, font3);

        //Save the document
        wb.saveToFile("MultiFonts.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2016);
    }
}
