Maksym,

The problem seems to be specific to Excel 2007. Did you create the template in
Office 2007 and saved in the compatibility mode? Were there any warnings? 

If I open foo.xls in Excel 2007 then the foreground is light blue. If I open it
in Excel 2003 the foreground is white. It's not a bug of POI, rather a
"feature" of Excel. When saving custom colors in the .xls format, Excel 2007
does not translate them into the standard palette. That's why the foreground is
not recognized by Excel 2003.

The [XFEXT] (0x87D) record is not a part of the BIFF8 specification. It's a new
stuff introduced by Excel 2007. If you are fancy to decode it - patches are
welcome.  Otherwise, I would recommend you to create your templates in Excel
2003. This way it should always work.

Regards,
Yegor
