TSV at a glance

TSV

TSV emerged as a pragmatic convention in data processing and spreadsheet exchange rather than as a richly standardized office format.

ODT at a glance

ODT

OpenDocument grew out of the push for openly specified office formats, and ODT became one of its most visible outcomes as governments and institutions looked for alternatives to vendor-owned document ecosystems.
