I am using phpexcel to create a xls file. I want to turn off

  • 0

I am using phpexcel to create a xls file. I want to turn off zipping though. I don’t have the php extension for zipping and I’d rather just send people the xlsx file unzipped. Is there a setting that would allow me to turn it off?

    No. “zipping” in xlsx is not meant to provide compression and decrease file size, xlsx file is in fact zip file with proper directory structure inside and many xml files.
