Decide what success means
Use the inventory to choose specific sheet operations. Structural inspection does not calculate business metrics or establish that the workbook’s formulas are current.
Prepare and run
Start with the exact input file for the job. Record sheet names rather than assuming every workbook uses a tab called Summary.
These examples use local sample filenames. Substitute your own paths and check jetformat excel inspect --help against the installed version before running the task. Put paths containing spaces inside quotes.
jetformat excel inspect finance.xlsx --jsonUse structural inspection before selecting a worksheet or editing cells. The output summarizes sheet ranges and counts of formulas, charts, and images.
Inspect the saved result
Record the exact sheet name and used range; a chart count does not mean charts will render in PDF.
Scope and repeatability
This is a free utility or read operation. It does not need a paid conversion to inspect the result.
Run jetformat excel inspect --help to compare options with your installed version.
See the excel command reference for the surrounding workflow.
Keep the input revision with the result so a later reviewer can reproduce the decision. For a write operation, choose a new output path first; use overwrite flags only when replacing a previously reviewed result is intentional.
