             Bug #: 1251
           Summary: Errors encounters on spreadsheet translations when any
                    text field exceeds 32,767 characters
           Product: SPDX
           Version: 1.2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Pretty Printer
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


This is a limitation in Microsoft Excel.

The error message for this is not very descriptive:

Unexpected error translating the tag-value to spreadsheet: The maximum length
of cell contents (text) is 32,767 characters

The error message should be specific to the field where the cell length has
been exceeded.

Another possible solution is to truncate the text fields, however, this can be
dangerous as we are modifying the contents of an SPDX document.
