[Solved] OO 2.4 does not use 'odt' format?

Post by djnavas »

I recently isntalled the spanish version of Open Office 2.4 and to my surprise, it uses an 'odf' format insted of open document format (.odt). Do I have an incomplete installation or have been a change in file formats?

Thanks in advance

Open Document Format (ODF) is a collective name for odt, ods, odp, odd and their templates ott, ots, otp, otd. Text, Spreadsheet, Presentation and Drawing. Oh I forgot Math formulas, which are denoted by an odf extension actually.

This is a change in the wording of the file type list, that appeared in OOo 2.4: Instead of having the long text "Open Document Text Format" it was condensed to the shorter "ODF Text Document". It's still the same file format, and uses the same extension ".odt" for ODF text documents.
