+        <warning>
+    To calculate column width HSSFSheet.autoSizeColumn uses Java2D classes
+    that throw exception if graphical environment is not available. In case if graphical environment
+    is not available, you must tell Java that you are running in headless mode and
+    set the following system property: <code> java.awt.headless=true </code>
+    (either via <code>-Djava.awt.headless=true</code> startup parameter or via <code>System.setProperty("java.awt.headless", "true")</code>).
