I've came across a few files that when ran through J generate a large number of empty columns. When you open the file in Excel it looks fine, only has about 25 columns. If I re-save it and run it through J again it exports as you'd expect. I'm assuming the problem is the version of Excel that generated the file in the first place. Unfortunately I can't share the XLSX file without getting an OK from the customer, which I'm working on. I thought I'd open this up for now anyways in case it's an easy fix."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/SheetJS/js-xlsx/issues/comments/76030808","html_url":"https://github.com/SheetJS/js-xlsx/issues/182#issuecomment-76030808","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/SheetJS/js-xlsx/issues/182","id":76030808,"user":{"login":"SheetJSDev","id":6070939,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/6070939?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev","html_url":"https://github.com/SheetJSDev","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/SheetJSDev/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-02-25T18:59:27Z","updated_at":"2015-02-25T18:59:27Z","body":"@davidworkman9 so to summarize: the actual sheet range has many more columns than actual data.  The code as it currently stands will skip those stub cells (unless `sheetStubs` is set to true), so the workaround of ignoring the reported range will work as expected.\r\n\r\nLast question: if you use excel to save as CSV, does it show up to column XFD or column Q?"}}
