You shouldn't copy anything to your vendor directory. See my answer. — qooplmao, Jul 18 '14 at 13:18

You can add it to your composer.json or require it with composer (php composer.phar require "phpoffice/phpexcel:1.8.0) like most other php packages which will then add it to the class loader meaning you can just use it like \PHPExcel_....

The available packages for it are on packagist.

If you are wanting to use the classes from a version that you have downloaded you can add them to your src directory and they will be autoloaded there through the default autoload setting.

"autoload": {
    "psr-0": { "": "src/"}
},
