The 3rd revision of the Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) 1.0 specification has been approved as an OASIS committee draft by the OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications Technical Committee.
Open Document format defines an XML schema for office applications and its semantics. The schema is suitable for office documents, including text documents, spreadsheets, charts and graphical documents like drawings or presentations, but is not restricted to these kinds of documents.
The schema provides for high-level information suitable for editing documents. It defines suitable XML structures for office documents and is friendly to transformations using XSLT or similar XML-based tools.
The specification document is available in PDF format
