Format Details
ODT
ODT (OpenDocument Text) is an open standard document format developed by OASIS for word processing, used as the native format by LibreOffice Writer and Apache OpenOffice Writer. It stores document content, styles, images, and metadata as XML in a ZIP archive, ensuring full transparency and long-term accessibility without vendor lock-in. ODT is also supported for import and export by Microsoft Word and Google Docs.
XML
XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a flexible, human-readable markup language defined by the W3C for structuring, storing, and transporting data across different systems. Unlike HTML, XML uses custom-defined tags chosen by the author to describe the semantic meaning of data, making it self-documenting and extensible. XML underpins numerous data formats, web services (SOAP), configuration standards, and document formats including SVG, DOCX, and RSS.
