Overview |
Another name for ODT is Open document format for office applications i.e. ODF. It is a Zip compressed Extensible Markup Language (XML) based open format. It is a substitute for Microsoft’s office and used for creating spreadsheets, charts, presentation and other word processing documents. As it is an open software that is why there is no need to get a license, it is free of cost. A number of files and directories that have binary content can be compressed using ZIP's lossless compression and which in result lessens the size of the file. In opendocument, there is one advantage of the separation of concerns which means, there can be distinct sections that address information separately of varied type. It may include content, styles, metadata and application settings as well. |
Technical description |
Based on the Sun Microsystems specification for OpenOffice.org, it was created by a technical committee under the OASIS (Organization for the advancement of structured information standards) association. However, the original developer was StarOffice which intended to provide open software for office documents. It was also released under the ISO/IEC international standard ISO/IEC 26300:2006 standard. Furthermore, there are many extensions that are used in Opendocument. This includes .odt and .fodt for word processing documents, .ods and .fods for spreadsheets, .odp and .fodp for presentations, .odg and .fodg for graphics and finally .odf for formulae in mathematics. Besides this, this format is available both as free and proprietary software. AbiWord, Adobe Buzzword, Microsoft office-2003, 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016 and 2019, LibreOffice; etc are few examples of softwares that either fully or partially support this format. |

Overview |
An XML file is a data file that is used to store,send and recreate the arbitrary data.It outlines a set of guidelines for document encoding in such a way that it can be read by both machines and humans.That is is the main reason these files are processed easily. XML files contain dataset that is meant to be used for structuring the data on a website, web application, or computer programme.. |
Technical description |
XML follows almost the same syntax as HTML as it has one root element that is the parent of all other elements. It comprises metadata and tags, which are used to structure the data.IETF RFC 7303 (successor of RFC 3023) lays forth guidelines for creating media types that may be used in XML messages. The three media types defined are Application/xml, application/xml-external-parsed-entity, and application/xml-dtd Text/xml is an alias for application/xml. They are used to transfer XML files in their raw form without revealing their inherent semantics. Also, RFC 7303 advises giving media types with the +xml suffix to XML-based languages, such as image/svg+xml for SVG. |
