ODP at a glance
ODP
As with ODT and ODS, ODP grew from the push for open office-document standards that were not owned by a single vendor platform.
DDS at a glance
DDS
DDS grew out of Microsoft's graphics API and game-development ecosystem, which is why it feels more like an engine or texture-delivery format than a conventional consumer image file.
