I am using apache POI to generate simple monthly report (SXSSF)... but I was surprised that final app size increased by 40MB ?!? by simply adding
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
<artifactId>poi-ooxml</artifactId>
<version>5.0.0</version>
</dependency>
And that is a lot. Is there a way how to exclude unnecessary parts/dependencies? E.G. 9MB batik (SVG support)
Unfortunately, I am not able to find anything about it in apache documentation.
Thanks.
PS: I choosed Apache POI because it seems like the only live (2021) project ...
PSS: please don't say: use a CSV instead (-:
