Greetings Jakub. since I am only a user, but not a POI developer I can speak only for myself. I do not think that there is a pre-built solution for this. In our software, I wrote code for: 1) render a XLS/XLSX sheet as a JTable (although no cell merge supported) 2) export the JTable to a HTML table 3) render the HTML table as PDF via Apache FOP This solution is good and sufficient for Data Tables (like in Database Tables or Result Sets). I would stand ready to assist you with code snippets when needed. Cheers Andreas
