▲This document describes the '''technical specifications of the [[OpenDocument]] office document standard''', as developed by the [[OASIS (organization)|OASIS]] industry consortium. A variety of organizations developed the standard publicly and make it publicly accessible, meaning it can be implemented by anyone without restriction. The OpenDocument format aims to provide an open alternative to [[proprietary format|proprietary]] document formats.
▲===Document representation===
The OpenDocument format supports the following two ways of document representation:
* As a '''collection of several sub-documents within a package''', each of which stores part of the complete document. This is the common representation of OpenDocument documents. It uses filename extensions such as <code>.odt</code>, <code>.ott</code>, <code>.ods</code>, <code>.odp</code> ... etc. The package is a standard [[ZIP (file format)|ZIP file]] with different filename extensions and with a defined structure of sub-documents. Each sub-document within a package has a different document root and stores a particular aspect of the XML document. All types of documents (e.g. text and spreadsheet documents) use the same set of document and sub-document definitions.
* As a '''single XML document''' – also known as ''Flat XML'' or ''Uncompressed XML Files''. Single OpenDocument XML files are not widely used,{{citation needed|date=December 2014}} they are also unsupported on some office software which claims to support ODF (Microsoft Office applications version 2007 to 2013
The recommended filename extensions and [[MIME]] types are included in the official standard (OASIS, May 1, 2005, and its later revisions or versions). The MIME types and extensions contained in the ODF specification are applicable only to office documents that are contained in a package. Office documents that conform to the OpenDocument specification but are not contained in a package should use the MIME type text/xml.
The MIME type is also used in the <code>office:mimetype</code> attribute. It is very important to use this attribute in flat XML files/single XML documents, where this is the only way the type of the document can be detected (in a package, the MIME type is also present in a separate file ''mimetype''). Its values are the MIME types that are used for the packaged variant of office documents.
==
The most common file extensions used for OpenDocument documents are <code>.odt</code> for text documents, <code>.ods</code> for spreadsheets, <code>.odp</code> for presentation programs, and <code>.odg</code> for graphics. These are easily remembered by considering ".od" as being short for "OpenDocument", and then noting that the last letter indicates its more specific type (such as t for text).
Here is the complete list of document types, showing the type of file, the recommended file extension, and the [[MIME]] Type:

OpenDocument also supports a set of template types. Templates represent formatting information (including styles) for documents, without
the content themselves. The recommended filename extension begins with ".ot" (interpretable as short for "OpenDocument template"), with the last letter indicating what kind of template (such as "t" for text). The supported set includes:

The OpenDocument format implements spreadsheets as sets of tables. Thus it features extensive capabilities for formatting the display of tables and spreadsheets. OpenDocument also supports database ranges, filters, and "data pilots" (known in Microsoft Excel contexts as "[[pivot table]]s"). Change tracking is available for spreadsheets as well.
The graphics format supports a vector graphic representation, in which a set of layers and the contents [https://web.archive.org/web/20051212150956/http://www.auton.nl/software/apps/adms/en/adms.html] of each layer is defined. Available drawing shapes include Rectangle, Line, Polyline, Polygon, Regular Polygon, Path, Circle, Ellipse, and Connector. 3D Shapes are also available; the format includes information about the Scene, Light, Cube, Sphere, Extrude, and Rotate (it is intended for use as for office data exchange, and not sufficient to represent videos or other extensive 3D scenes). Custom shapes can also be defined.
Presentations are supported. Users can include animations in presentations, with control over the sound, showing a shape or text, hiding a shape or text, or dimming something, and these can be grouped. In OpenDocument, much of the format capabilities are reused from the text format, simplifying implementations. However, tables are not supported within OpenDocument as drawing objects, so may only be included in presentations as embedded tables.
Line 195 ⟶ 185:
** Drawings
** Presentations
* Objects that do not have an XML representation
Use of Microsoft Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) objects limits the interoperability, because these objects are not widely supported in programs for viewing or editing files (e.g. embedding of other files inside the file, such as tables or charts from a spreadsheet application in a text document or presentation file).<ref>{{cite web |url=

OpenDocument version 1.2 fully describes mathematical formulas displayable on-screen. It is fully capable of exchanging spreadsheet data, formats, [[pivot table]]s, and other information typically included in a spreadsheet. OpenDocument exchanges formulas as values of the attribute table:formula.
The allowed syntax of table:formula was not defined in sufficient detail in the OpenDocument version 1.0 specification, which defined spreadsheet formulas using a set of simple examples showing, for example, how to specify ranges and the SUM() function. The [[OASIS (organization)|OASIS]] OpenDocument Formula sub group therefore standardized the table:formula in the [[OpenFormula]] specification. For more information
===Encryption===
When an OpenDocument file is password protected the file structure of the bundle remains the same, but contents of XML files in the package are encrypted using the following algorithm:
# The file contents are compressed with the [[DEFLATE]] algorithm.
# A checksum of a portion of the compressed file is computed (SHA-1 of the file contents, or SHA-1 of the first 1024 bytes of the file, or SHA-256 of the first 1024 bytes of the file) and stored, so password correctness can be verified when decrypting.
# A digest (hash) of the user
# This digest is used to produce a derived key by undergoing [[key stretching]] with [[PBKDF2]] using HMAC-SHA-1 with a salt of arbitrary length (in ODF 1.2
# The random number generator is used to generate a random initialization vector for each file.
# The initialization vector and derived key are used to encrypt the compressed file contents. ODF 1.0 and 1.1 use Blowfish in 8-bit cipher feedback mode, while ODF 1.2 considers it a legacy algorithm and allows [[Triple DES]] and [[Advanced Encryption Standard|AES]] (with 128, 196 or 256 bits), both in cipher block chaining mode, to be used instead.
==Format internals==
An OpenDocument file commonly consists of a standard [[ZIP (file format)|ZIP]] archive ([[JAR (file format)|JAR]] archive<ref>{{cite web |last=Sobhi |first=Ali |date=2007-08-14 |orig-date=August 2006 |title=Introduction to OpenDocument Format |publication-place=Armonk, New York, United States |publisher=[[IBM]] |url=http://www-03.ibm.com/able/resources/odfintro.html |
According to the OpenDocument 1.0 specification, the ZIP file specification is defined in ''Info-ZIP Application Note 970311, 1997''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2205 |title=NEEDS-DISCUSSION: ZIP reference - N 1309 |
The simple compression mechanism used for a package normally makes OpenDocument files significantly smaller than equivalent Microsoft "<code>.doc</code>" or "<code>.ppt</code>" files. This smaller size is important for organizations who store a vast number of documents for long periods of time, and to those organizations who must exchange documents over low bandwidth connections. Once uncompressed, most data is contained in simple text-based XML files, so the uncompressed data contents have the typical ease of modification and processing of XML files. The standard also allows for the creation of a single XML document, which uses ''<office:document>'' as the root element, for use in document processing.
Line 253 ⟶ 243:
'''content.xml''', the most important file, carries the actual content of the document (except for binary data, such as images). The base format is inspired by HTML, and though far more complex, it should be reasonably legible to humans:
<
<text:h style-name="Heading_2">This is a title</text:h>
<text:p style-name="Text_body"/>
Line 261 ⟶ 251:
is a blank paragraph (an empty line).
</text:p>
</syntaxhighlight>
===styles.xml===
Line 277 ⟶ 267:
'''meta.xml''' contains the file metadata. For example, Author, "Last modified by", date of last modification, etc. The contents look somewhat like this:
<
<meta:creation-date>2003-09-10T15:31:11</meta:creation-date>
<dc:creator>Daniel Carrera</dc:creator>
Line 287 ⟶ 277:
image-count="2" word-count="16701"
character-count="98757"/>
</syntaxhighlight>
The names of the <dc:...> tags come from the [[Dublin Core]] XML standard.
Line 295 ⟶ 285:
===mimetype (file)===
'''mimetype''' is just a one-line file with the mimetype of the document. One implication of this is that the file extension is actually immaterial to the format. The file extension is only there for the benefit of the user. It is important to note that this special file is always the first file entry in the ZIP archive and it is uncompressed. Because the ZIP header uses fields with fixed lengths, this allows the direct identification of the different OpenDocument formats without decompression of the content (e. g. with magic bytes).
===Thumbnails (directory)===
'''Thumbnails''' is a separate folder for a document thumbnail. The thumbnail must be saved as “thumbnail.png”. A thumbnail representation of a document should be generated by default when the file is saved. It should be a representation of the first page, first sheet, etc. of the document. The required size for the thumbnails is 128x128 pixel. In order to conform to the [

==Versions detection==
To indicate which version of the OpenDocument specification a file complies with, all root elements take an <code>office:version</code> attribute
===ODF 1.0/1.1===
It is not mandatory to use <code>office:version</code> attribute in ODF 1.0 and ODF 1.1 files, so when an element has office:version omitted, the element is based on ODF 1.0 or 1.1. If the file has a version known to an XML processor, it may validate the document. Otherwise, it is optional to validate the document, but the document must be well formed
===ODF 1.2===▼
The <code>office:version</code> attribute shall be present in each and every <office:document>, <office:document-content>, <office:document-styles>, <office:document-meta>, and <office:document-settings> element in the XML documents that comprise an OpenDocument 1.2 document. The value of the office:version attribute shall be "1.2".▼
▲===ODF 1.2 and newer===
▲The <code>office:version</code> attribute shall be present in each and every <office:document>, <office:document-content>, <office:document-styles>, <office:document-meta>, and <office:document-settings> element in the XML documents that comprise an OpenDocument 1.2 or newer document. The value of the office:version attribute shall
