What is a .xlsx file?

XLSX is the default Microsoft Excel format, an Office Open XML spreadsheet stored as a ZIP archive containing worksheet XML, shared strings, styles, and formulas. It supports multiple sheets, cell formatting, charts, and calculated values. It is the standard for editable tabular workbooks.

How to use this file

Use an example XLSX to test spreadsheet parsing, formula and multi-sheet handling, shared-string extraction, and pipelines that read or generate Excel workbooks.

How to use this file for testing

“XLSX with Embedded Charts” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Spreadsheet testing, Conversion testing. Multi-sheet workbooks with documented formulas and plain sheets for testing spreadsheet parsers and importers.

Documented properties for this file: XLSX · 7,363 bytes. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.

Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such — expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.

Document fixtures list their internal structure (pages, fields, tracked changes, embedded objects) in the spec table. Test extractors, converters, and OCR against that known structure, and compare searchable↔scanned or format-twin companions when present.

Code examples

from openpyxl import load_workbook

wb = load_workbook("embedded-charts.xlsx")
ws = wb.active
print(ws.title, ws.max_row, ws.max_column)
