From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The
OpenDocument format (ODF), an abbreviation for the OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications, is an
open and
free (excluding maintenance and support)
[1]
document file format for saving and exchanging editable office documents such as text documents (including memos, reports, and books),
spreadsheets ,
databases ,
charts , and presentations. This standard was developed by the
OASIS industry consortium, based upon the
XML -based file format originally created by
OpenOffice.org , and ODF was approved as an OASIS standard on May 1, 2005. It became an
ISO standard, ISO/IEC 26300, on May 3, 2006.
The following tables list applications supporting OpenDocument 1.0 (ISO/IEC 26300:2006) and OpenDocument 1.1 (OASIS Standard).

OpenDocument Format version in exported files
Root elements in ODF files take an office:version attribute, which indicates which version of OpenDocument Format specification it complies with. The version number is in the format revision.version. 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. Informations from OpenDocument specification
[4]
Following table contains list of ODF specification version attribute office:version="1.X" used in files exported from OpenDocument software.
Tested sample documents contained one simple sentence (text documents), 10 rows with numbers (sheets), 2 slides (presentation documents). Validation was tested in two different ODF validators.
