MS Excel 97 2000 XP to JFI conversion is the process of transforming spreadsheets saved in the legacy XLS format (used by Microsoft Excel 97, 2000 and XP) into the JFI document format. This conversion extracts workbook structure, cell values, basic formatting and embedded objects where supported, and repackages that information into the JFI container for use in applications that accept JFI files.
