If you pass {raw:true} to the sheet_to_json function it should give you the number!

For example, with that pct.xlsx file from earlier:

// normal behavior
XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json(wb.Sheets.Sheet1,{header:1})
[
  [ '0.8', '-0.05' ], 
  [ '80%', '-5%' ]
]


// if you add raw:true to the options, it will give you the number
XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json(wb.Sheets.Sheet1,{header:1,raw:true})
[
  [ 0.8, -0.05 ],
  [ 0.8, -0.05 ]
]

#608 covers the general issue of the formatting in ExtendScript, so I think we’re done here
