Since version 2.0, OpenOffice.org has supported the open standard OASIS OpenDocument as its
default file format. LibreOffice saves documents in OpenDocument Format by default. LibreOffice 3
adopted version 1.2 of the OpenDocument standard and this version of LibreOffice continues to
use this standard. LibreOffice can also open and save many other file formats; see “File formats
LibreOffice can open” on this page, “File formats LibreOffice can save to” on page 380, and
“Exporting to other formats” on page 382.
OpenDocument filename extensions
The most common filename extensions used for OpenDocument documents are:
*.odt for word processing (text) documents
*.ods for spreadsheets
*.odp for presentations
*.odb for databases
*.odg for graphics (vector drawings)
*.odf for formulas (mathematical equations)
File formats LibreOffice can open
LibreOffice can open a wide variety of file formats in addition to the OpenDocument formats,
including Portable Document Format (PDF), if an ODF file is embedded in the PDF (see Chapter
10 Printing, Exporting, and Emailing for more information).
Opening text documents
In addition to OpenDocument formats (.odt, .ott, .oth, .odm, and .fodt), Writer can open the formats
used by OpenOffice.org 1.x (.sxw, .stw, and .sxg) and the following text document formats:
Microsoft Word 6.0/95/97/2000/XP) (.doc and .dot)
Microsoft Word 2003 XML (.xml)
Microsoft Word 2007/2010 XML (.docx, .docm, .dotx, .dotm)
Microsoft WinWord 5 (.doc)
WordPerfect Document (.wpd)
Microsoft Works (.wps)
Lotus WordPro (.lwp)
Rich Text Format (.rtf)
Text CSV (.csv and .txt)
StarWriter formats (.sdw, .sgl, .vor)
DocBook (.xml)
Unified Office Format text (.uot, .uof)
Ichitaro 8/9/10/11 (.jtd and .jtt)
Hangul WP 97 (.hwp)
T602 Document (.602, .txt)
AportisDoc (Palm) (.pdb)
Pocket Word (.psw)
HTML Document (.htm, .html)
Most of these file types are automatically detected by LibreOffice, so they can be opened without
explicitly selecting the document type in the file picker.
When opening .htm or .html files (used for web pages), LibreOffice customizes Writer for working
with these files.
