ExtenXLS: a Java Excel Reporting Toolkit from the developers at Extentech. ExtenXLS is an easy-to-use reporting API that allows for the reading in, modifying and creation of spreadsheet-based reports from Java applications.

Written entirely in Java, ExtenXLS creates new spreadsheet files from scratch as well as from existing spreadsheet file templates.

ExtenXLS utilizes data from any source and outputs it in Excel-compatible XLS, XML, and HTML formats.

With Excel compatibility, template input files can range from a variety of complex legacy spreadsheets such as: surveys, checklists, what-if scenarios, and historical portfolio data.

ExtenXLS has dozens of methods that can create new WorkBooks from scratch, allowing for the insertion of new cells containing text, and numeric data. ExtenXLS also has the ability to customize output with hundreds of fonts, colors, patterns, borders, formulas, named ranges, and built-in formats such as: currency, date, financial and numeric formatting patterns.
