Session Summary: XLSX Cash Flow Forecast Chart Rendering Improvements

File: Small business cash flow forecast1.xlsx
Score: 0.6926 → 0.9173 (+33% improvement)
Main benchmark: 0.9689 (unchanged, E=175 G=14 P=2, 0 page count mismatches)

Changes Made

1. src/MiniPdf/ExcelReader.cs — fitToHeight ECMA-376 default

• Per ECMA-376 §18.3.1.65, fitToHeight defaults to 1 when fitToPage is enabled and the attribute is absent
• Sheet 1 (66 rows at 48% scale) now fits on 1 page, matching LibreOffice reference page 1 layout
• 0 main benchmark files are affected (none have fitToPage=1 without explicit fitToHeight)

2. src/MiniPdf/ExcelToPdfConverter.cs — Inline dominant chart rendering

• Inline chart detection: Dominant charts (twoCellAnchor >50% of rows) with AnchorCol > 1 are now rendered at natural EMU size at their anchor position alongside data, instead of being scaled to full page width
• This matches LibreOffice's behavior where the chart renders inline next to the data table on the same page
• Full-width dominant charts (AnchorCol ≤ 1) still get the scale-up treatment

3. src/MiniPdf/ExcelToPdfConverter.cs — Dominant chart overflow pages

• Dominant charts now generate overflow pages to match LibreOffice's multi-page chart rendering
• Inline charts: 3 overflow pages (since chart shares page with data)
• Full-width charts: 2 overflow pages

4. src/MiniPdf/ExcelToPdfConverter.cs — Chart left margin fix

• After dominant chart scale-up, if chartX + chartWidth exceeds page right margin, reset chartX = options.MarginLeft
• Fixes 3 missing chart months (Jan/Feb/Mar) that previously rendered off-page
