+By default, format information is not read.  To include it, call a `ReadableWorkbook` constructor that takes `ReadingOptions`:
+
+```java
+boolean withCellFormat = true; // If true, extract cell formatting 
+boolean cellInErrorIfParseError = true; // If true, cell type is ERROR if it is not possible to parse cell value
+                                        // If false, an exception is throw when there is a parsing error
+ReadingOptions readingOptions = new ReadingOptions(withCellFormat, cellInErrorIfParseError);
+try (ReadableWorkbook wb = new ReadableWorkbook(is, readingOptions)) {
+```
