This article should be more similar to List of software that supports Office Open XML. Why isn't it? Why is it so more messy? ScotXW ( talk) 22:08, 27 October 2013 (UTC)
Seems like a job for WikiCalc where users could sort the list according to desired criteria; however I support the merging of this, one of the most important aspects of OpenDocument. -SH
Is Apple going to support OpenDocument in Pages anytime soon? -- Hhielscher 16:52, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
Xushi, 20080206:1750 - If it helps, NeoOffice supports OpenDocument, and it runs on OSX. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.90.173.180 ( talk) 15:49, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
At our school we tell the students to use the free NeoOffice if they don't have the latest Microsoft Office. With native format OpenDocument, when using NeoOffice and sharing a document, one needs to save it in Microsoft family of formats. We actually prefer NeoOffice over MicroSoft Office, which is often too cumbersome. LoopTel ( talk) 20:23, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
Another compatible free software is Bean (word processor only). LoopTel ( talk) 00:53, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
I subdivided the ODT section into word processors and other applications. My theory is that people wanting to use this list as an encyclopedic resource for OpenDocument applications may want to be able to see all the word processors specifically. The article had this distinction at one point, but it must have gotten lost when all the other great information was merged here. IEdML 15:17, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
In Windows 7 WordPad supports odt natively, I think it must be included. Angel Ochoa —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.54.98.155 ( talk) 01:12, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
This page was moved from List of applications supporting OpenDocument to OpenDocument/Software and then OpenDocument Software, but I can't find any discussion on the issue. To me, the new name is vague and not really an improvement. Even assuming the rename is a good idea, the appropriate name per the MoS would be OpenDocument software, with the second word lowercase.

It seems that there are serieus problems exchanging ODF documents between for instance OOo en kOffice.
So allthough the suggestion of this article is exchangeability it might be wise to advise people not to exchange documents for editting purposes yet. At least for the tim for viewing purposes only as editting ODF that is not created with the same application leads to a serieus risk possible loss of formatting and even data. I find it quite remarkeble that these problem are not discussed anywere on wikipedia when discussing ODF formats-- HAl 13:59, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
In the Accessibility section, the links to the OASIS site for the Peter Korn material require a password. So I cannot verify that the source matches the claims. Rick Jelliffe 08:07, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
In the links section, it says
(See [2]). It is not from an independent expert. I am making no suggestion that it is inappropriate to have this link. The URL is incorrect too, by the way. Rick Jelliffe 08:07, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
I will not edit the following myself, due to supposed conflict of interest. In the references section there is a link Christians Challenge Microsoft to support ODF for Disadvantaged. It does not seem to be referenced anywhere in the text and is outdated. Rick Jelliffe 14:50, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
I will not edit the following myself, due to supposed conflict of interest. In the section on Microsoft, where it says Microsoft has been accused... it references an article on Groklaw. However that page merely quotes extensively a blog of somebody called Rob Weir, without mentioning that the material comes from an employee of rival vendor and IBM/Lotus delegate to ODF OpenFormula, indeed from the same Rob Weir here on Wikipedia. (Rob, I am surprised that Pamela does not seem to know who you are! :-)) I suggest the paragraph should say Microsoft has been accused by IBM/Lotus ODF representative Rob Weir... and reference Rob's blog directly. (IMHO, sentences like "has been accused" without clear statements of who the accuser is should always be improved to include who the accuser is; where no accuser can be found, the accusation is rumour or Chinese Whisper. IMHO, where an accusation is being quoted, it is better to source the original accusation if possible.) Rick Jelliffe 16:31, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Newer versions of office apparantly do no longer support opening and editing odf documents but need a microsoft online service to do conversion to microsoft formats:

Considering that this is an encyclopedial article, the section on accessibility reads very much like a political statement: "Having an accessible specification is not enough; what is needed are accessible implementations." ... is not exactly neutral language. I'll remove that specific line in a couple of days, and suggest that somebody in the know looks over the section. -- LasseFolkersen ( talk) 08:09, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
I can't get google docs to open .odts anymore. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.192.52.24 ( talk) 03:13, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
Google docs support odt, no problem at all. Visit Officeshots project or try it out.
Remove "Kingsoft Impress" from the section of presentation. The reasons are :
(1) There's not a software product name as "Kingsoft Impress". (2) Kingsoft Office Suite doesn't has a product called "Kingsoft Impress". (3) Kingsoft Presentation doesn't support the Opendocument format. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 111.67.57.162 ( talk) 11:28, 31 August 2013 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to 2 external links on
OpenDocument software. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.
This message was posted before February 2018.
After February 2018, "External links modified" talk page sections are no longer generated or monitored by InternetArchiveBot. No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than
