fix(go): skip hidden worksheets in XLSX conversion - #208
The Go converter rendered every worksheet part in an XLSX package, including sheets that xl/workbook.xml marks as hidden or veryHidden. Excel and LibreOffice never print those sheets, and the .NET and Rust implementations already skip them.
For tests/Issue_Files/xlsx/PO_anonymized.xlsx, the hidden db sheet added 19 pages of lookup data that appear in neither the Microsoft 365 nor the LibreOffice reference PDF.
This change resolves each sheet through the workbook relationships before conversion:
When every visible sheet resolves to a part in the package, only those parts are rendered. A hidden sheet with a broken relationship, or an orphaned worksheet part, is not printed.
If a visible sheet cannot be resolved, only the parts known to be hidden are dropped, so no visible sheet is lost.
Without a relationships part, sheets map to parts by position.
Relationship targets match part names case-insensitively.
FEATURE_PARITY.md now marks Go as partial for hidden rows, columns, and sheets (hidden rows and columns are still not handled).
LibreOffice source consulted for the expected behavior:
sc/source/filter/oox/worksheetbuffer.cxx: mnState of XML_hidden or XML_veryHidden leads to rDoc.SetVisible(..., false).
sc/source/ui/view/printfun.cxx: a sheet with !rDoc.IsVisible(nPrintTab) is skipped when printing.
Validation
Run on macOS with Go 1.27.1. The visual benchmark used the committed Microsoft 365 and LibreOffice reference PDFs (-SkipReference), because Microsoft 365 references cannot be generated on macOS.

PO_anonymized remains far below the reference. The Go converter still ignores the print area, hidden rows, and print scaling for this file; those are separate changes.
Compatibility notes:
A package with a malformed xl/workbook.xml or xl/_rels/workbook.xml.rels now returns a parse error. The Go XLSX path did not read those parts before.
Worksheet parts that no visible sheet references are no longer rendered.
A workbook in which every sheet is hidden produces one blank page.
Checklist

New or changed behavior has automated test coverage where practical.
Relevant .NET and/or Rust checks pass. (Not applicable: the change is confined to minipdf-go; Go checks pass.)
Public API and compatibility effects are documented.
Security implications and untrusted-input behavior were considered.
I have the right to submit every added source file, fixture, font, image, and other asset under its stated license.
Third-party and generated material includes its source and license.
Test documents contain no confidential information or personal data.
User-facing documentation is updated, including translated README files when the English README changed.
Large benchmark outputs are attached or stored as CI artifacts unless they are required canonical evidence. (Not attached yet: the PDFs and comparison images are kept locally and the scores are summarized above.)
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
XLSX-to-PDF exports respect worksheet visibility: hidden and very hidden sheets are excluded, while visible sheets are rendered. Sheets not known to be hidden are retained when visibility or relationships cannot be fully resolved.
Workbooks with print areas can render with repeated titles, scaling, page breaks, hidden-cell handling, and page centering.
Exports support more spreadsheet formatting, including number and date formats, fonts, fills, borders, conditional formatting, and embedded images. Headers and footers are also rendered.
If all sheets are hidden, the PDF contains one blank page.
Bug Fixes
Empty text-only worksheets no longer produce unnecessary blank pages.
The Go XLSX converter now reads worksheet visibility and print settings, renders configured print areas with expanded formatting and pagination support, and adds PDF output for footers and raster images. Text rendering can skip empty pages. Tests and documentation cover these behaviors and their constraints.

Summary
Workbook selection and text-page handling minipdf-go/xlsx.go, minipdf-go/office.go, minipdf-go/office_test.go, FEATURE_PARITY.md
The converter resolves worksheet parts from workbook relationships, excludes hidden and very hidden sheets when resolution permits, and reads print metadata. Text rendering skips empty pages when a worksheet has text. Tests cover visibility, relationship fallbacks, malformed metadata, and empty-page behavior.
Styles and cell rendering support theme and RGB colors, font metrics, italic and embedded fonts, number formats, double borders, and conditional fills. Tests cover formatting and rule evaluation.
Worksheets with print areas render as grids with repeated titles, hidden dimensions, scaling, centering, and page breaks. Picture and chart placement uses grid scale. Tests cover print-range parsing, pagination, picture cropping, and layout behavior.
PDF fonts, decorations, and images minipdf-go/pdf.go, minipdf-go/pdf_image.go, minipdf-go/font.go, minipdf-go/xlsx_footer.go, minipdf-go/xlsx_layout_test.go, minipdf-go/README.md
PDF serialization supports embedded-font resources, italic text, page decoration callbacks, and raster image operations. Footer parsing and rendering produce page-specific text operations.

Explanation
The title "fix(go): skip hidden worksheets in XLSX conversion" matches the main change in the changeset. The XLSX converter now uses workbook visibility and relationship information to select worksheet parts, and hidden sheets are excluded. The title is specific and concise. The broader changes (print areas, footers, fonts, images, number formats) are not named, which is acceptable because the title does not need to cover every detail.

Warning
Review coverage is incomplete: 8 files could not be fully reviewed. Findings from completed review steps are included; see review info for details.
The Go converter rendered every worksheet part in the package, including
sheets that xl/workbook.xml marks as hidden or veryHidden. Excel and
LibreOffice never print those sheets, and the .NET and Rust
implementations already skip them.
Resolve each sheet through the workbook relationships. When every
visible sheet resolves to a part in the package, render exactly those
parts, so a hidden sheet with a broken relationship or an orphaned
worksheet part is never printed. If a visible sheet cannot be resolved,
only drop the parts known to be hidden so that no visible sheet is lost.
Without a relationships part, sheets map to parts by position.
Relationship targets match part names case-insensitively.
Mark Go as partial for hidden sheets in FEATURE_PARITY.md.

- Line 152: Update the positional fallback in the worksheet-selection logic to
use the corresponding entry from the discovered worksheets list rather than
constructing a contiguous sheetN.xml filename. Ensure hidden-sheet handling
works for non-contiguous and custom worksheet filenames, and add coverage for
both cases.
- Line 157: Update the sheet-target resolution check that uses
packageParts[part] to resolve visible sheets only against discovered worksheets.
Preserve the unresolved-sheet fallback when a target exists elsewhere in the

🟡 Changes recommended
Worksheet mapping can expose hidden sheets when filenames have gaps, while accepting non-worksheet relationship targets can incorrectly discard visible worksheets instead of preserving them through fallback.
This PR updates Go XLSX conversion to exclude hidden and very-hidden worksheets, bringing sheet visibility handling closer to the .NET and Rust implementations.
Changes:
Filters worksheet parts using workbook visibility and relationships, with fallbacks for missing or unresolved relationships.
Adds regression tests for visibility, relationship resolution, case-insensitive targets, and all-hidden workbooks.
Marks Go support for hidden rows, columns, and sheets as partial.
File
Description
minipdf-go/xlsx.go
Filters worksheet parts before rendering based on workbook visibility.
minipdf-go/office_test.go
Tests hidden-sheet filtering and relationship fallback behavior.
FEATURE_PARITY.md
Updates Go’s visibility support status to partial.
Address review comments on the hidden worksheet change.
Without workbook relationships, map each sheet to the ordered worksheet
part at its position instead of a synthesized sheetN.xml name, so
non-contiguous and custom part names hide the right sheet.
Count a visible sheet as resolved only when its target is a discovered
worksheet part. A target that names another package part, such as
xl/styles.xml, now falls back to dropping known-hidden parts instead of
dropping the visible sheet.
Publication status: committed and pushed to this PR as 552ef74d (fix(go): honor XLSX print layout and source styling). The PR head has been verified to match this commit. Tests and vet passed again immediately before committing. Results below are local validation results; they do not imply that GitHub CI has completed. All four previously existing review threads were resolved before this push.
Local follow-up changes
Corrected print-area pagination, hidden row/column handling, repeat titles, scaling, and empty-page suppression. PO_anonymized now produces 9 pages, matching Office, rather than the earlier 216-page or intermediate 41-page output.
Restored theme/tint and conditional fills, including the report title and Accept result styling.
Added source-cropped pictures, matching registered/installed Calibri and Arial font variants, actual font metrics, shrink-to-fit, centering, double borders, printed dates/numbers, and final-document page-count footers.
Added regression coverage and updated the supported-feature documentation. No fixture-specific coordinates/colors or new dependencies were introduced.

The full 21-case XLSX overall average improves from 0.5765 to 0.5789. All 21 PDFs are valid, every case retains its baseline page count, all 594 comparison-image references exist, and 13 PDFs are byte-identical to this baseline. PO images are exactly p1-p9; p10-p41 and p209 are absent. All nine PO pages have correct Page n of 9 footers, and the date is rendered as 24-Jan-2026 rather than serial 46046.
Validation
Passed locally after the final complete benchmark:
Set-Location minipdf-go
go test -count=1 ./...
go vet ./...
Set-Location ..
git diff --check
git diff --cached --check
Formatting checks also passed. Both benchmark commands completed successfully; the full run regenerated all 21 candidate PDFs and comparison images without case/page limits:
MinimumScore 0 permits comparative validation; it does not certify that the complete suite meets 0.95.
Remaining differences and trade-offs
Page one is not pixel-identical: small row/column geometry and device-rounding differences remain. The overall score must not be confused with the lower page-one visual score.
No new visual-average decrease exceeds 0.002 against the latest local baseline. Small decreases are Business expense budget1 (-0.0001), cash flow (-0.0003), Template1 (-0.0017), and Template2 (-0.0014).
The previously accepted cash-flow comparison trade-off remains: its chart is on candidate page 5 rather than reference page 2. That separate pagination mismatch is not fixed here.
Font fidelity depends on available matching fonts. Complete headers/footer controls, general vector drawings, cross-page image clipping, and complete number-format semantics remain outside this follow-up.
These follow-up changes extend beyond the original hidden-sheet fix and are now included in this PR. The benchmark artifacts remain local and are not attached to this comment.
Post-push CI snapshot
The PR head is verified as 552ef74d4ba8d19fce7f1d4a07f01f531ae09fb9. Build/test checks were still running at the publication check. The separate reviewer-request job failed because its required GitHub token was not supplied (CORE_REVIEWERS_TOKEN / github-token). This is an automation/secret-availability failure, not a Go test failure; no workflow or credential workaround was applied.

Collect footer glyphs on the font alias that encodes them.
A deduplicated footer font never uses its embedded glyphs. collect fills only the canonical font, but appendPDF encodes through the footer's alias. The alias has no glyph map, so footer text falls back to Helvetica or Helvetica-Bold. Move the alias copy after the font loop so every alias gets the final canonical resource and objectID.
Suggested fix
canonical.collect(text.text)
+ text.embedded.collect(text.text)
}

for index, font := range fonts {
if font == embedded {
continue
}

Collect all glyphs before serializing the automatic embedded font.
If AddText("A", ...) uses a registered font and a named-font cell uses that same font for "ii", deduplication adds the cell glyphs to the automatic font here. However, its PDF objects were already written before this loop. Its width table and ToUnicode map therefore omit those additional glyphs. This remains broken after correcting alias resources. Defer appendEmbeddedFontObjects for the automatic font until all text operations have contributed their glyphs. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Clamp title scopes the same way as print areas.
The column-title example in the original concern is not valid. Column-title scopes use the clamped print-area rows. Row-title scopes are different. Their row range comes from Print_Titles without a clamp, so a whole-sheet row title such as $1:$1048576 can add blank cells for about 1M rows. Each row spans the clamped print-area columns. This applies when a conditional-format range also covers those rows. The same unclamped row and column ends also affect the combined title scope at line 358.

Resolve the default-font marker before loading the font.
For &"-,Bold", SpreadsheetML uses - to indicate an unspecified font family. Assigning "-" to current.name makes readXLSXFont search for a literal - Bold family. It returns no matching font, even when the worksheet's default family has a registered bold variant. The footer then loses the selected family or bold variant through fallback.

Skip unsupported pictures instead of failing the whole conversion.
readXLSXPictures runs only for sheets with a print area. Each of these inputs on such a sheet returns an error, which stops the whole conversion:
An External image relationship.
An image format that image.DecodeConfig cannot read, such as EMF or WMF.
A negative srcRect crop.
Pictures before this PR were not read, so these workbooks converted. Pictures are optional content, so one unsupported logo should not block the PDF. Skip unsupported pictures. Keep the errors for corrupt package data, such as a missing part or malformed relationship XML. For a negative crop, clamping to the image bounds is an alternative to skipping.
External IDs must be tracked separately. Otherwise the missing-relationship check still fails them.

Summary
The Go converter rendered every worksheet part in an XLSX package, including sheets that
xl/workbook.xmlmarks ashiddenorveryHidden. Excel and LibreOffice never print those sheets, and the .NET and Rust implementations already skip them.For
tests/Issue_Files/xlsx/PO_anonymized.xlsx, the hiddendbsheet added 19 pages of lookup data that appear in neither the Microsoft 365 nor the LibreOffice reference PDF.This change resolves each sheet through the workbook relationships before conversion:
FEATURE_PARITY.mdnow marks Go as partial for hidden rows, columns, and sheets (hidden rows and columns are still not handled).LibreOffice source consulted for the expected behavior:
sc/source/filter/oox/worksheetbuffer.cxx:mnStateofXML_hiddenorXML_veryHiddenleads torDoc.SetVisible(..., false).sc/source/ui/view/printfun.cxx: a sheet with!rDoc.IsVisible(nPrintTab)is skipped when printing.Validation
Run on macOS with Go 1.27.1. The visual benchmark used the committed Microsoft 365 and LibreOffice reference PDFs (
-SkipReference), because Microsoft 365 references cannot be generated on macOS.go vet,gofmt, andgit diff --checkpass.TestConvertXLSXSkipsHiddenWorksheetsfails without the fix and passes with it.TestConvertXLSXResolvesHiddenWorksheetPartscovers missing relationships, dangling ids, unmatched targets, case differences, and all-sheets-hidden.Go
issue/xlsxvisual benchmark, before (edeea714) and after:PO_anonymizedpayroll-calculator_fissue/pptxis unchanged at 0.6093.PO_anonymizedremains far below the reference. The Go converter still ignores the print area, hidden rows, and print scaling for this file; those are separate changes.Compatibility notes:
xl/workbook.xmlorxl/_rels/workbook.xml.relsnow returns a parse error. The Go XLSX path did not read those parts before.Checklist
