How to Megre XLSX to PCL in Cloud Apps
- Initialize WordsApi with Client Id, Client Secret, Base URL & API version
- Set requestDocument assign the local XLSX file name
- Set requestDocumentListDocumentEntriesFileReference and assign local PCL file name
- Set requestDocumentListDocumentEntries and set file_reference, import_format_mode parameters
- Create DocumentEntryList instance and assing requestDocumentListDocumentEntries to document_entries parameter
- Call AppendDocumentOnlineRequest to merge XLSX file with PCL document requestDocument and requestDocumentList
- Call WordsApi appendDocumentOnline with parameters

FAQ
- What is XLSX Format?XLSX is well-known format for Microsoft Excel documents that was introduced by Microsoft with the release of Microsoft Office 2007. Based on structure organized according to the Open Packaging Conventions as outlined in Part 2 of the OOXML standard ECMA-376, the new format is a zip package that contains a number of XML files. The underlying structure and files can be examined by simply unzipping the .xlsx file.
- What is PCL Format?PCL stands for Printer Command Language which is a Page Description Language introduced by Hewlett Packard (HP). HP created PCL to provide an efficient way for controlling printer features across many different printing devices. The format was originally developed for HP’s dot matrix and Inkjet printers, but has been part of various thermal, matrix and page printers with the passage of time. The format underwent several different revisions, resulting in different versions where each version was enhanced to meet the demands of time with respect to the printer control features. Today, PCL is the most widely spread printer language in the laster printer market.
