COMO NASCEU O
FORMATO ODS.
ODS — OpenDocument Spreadsheet — is the spreadsheet member of the OpenDocument Format family standardized by OASIS in 2005 (ISO/IEC 26300 the following year). It’s the native save format of LibreOffice Calc and the default of every OpenOffice-derived suite. Structurally ODS mirrors ODT: a ZIP archive with XML files describing sheets, cells, formulas, charts, and styles.
Like its sibling ODT, ODS became the principled choice for governments and institutions that want to avoid Microsoft lock-in. Every EU country’s open-data portal and many open-science organizations export their public data as ODS alongside CSV. In practice ODS suffers the same fate as ODT: Microsoft Office opens it with subtle formula drift, so business workflows still default to XLSX.
CURIOSIDADES E
FATOS INTERESSANTES.
An ODS file is a ZIP archive — rename to .zip and browse the XML sheets inside.
LibreOffice Calc supports 1 048 576 rows × 16 384 columns per sheet in ODS — matching Excel XLSX.
Charts in ODS are SVG-based, while charts in XLSX use Microsoft's proprietary DrawingML.
The UK, Netherlands, and Italy have government mandates requiring ODS for public documents.
Some Excel formulas (new dynamic-array functions like FILTER, LAMBDA) have no direct ODS equivalent.
