Information technology — Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) v1.0
ISO/IEC 26300:2006 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. ISO/IEC 26300:2006 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. ISO/IEC 26300:2006 first provides an introduction to the OpenDocument format and explains the structure of documents that conform to the OpenDocument specification. It describes the meta information that can be contained in such documents, and their text and paragraph content. Text Fields and text indices are described. ISO/IEC 26300:2006 describes the table content of a document in OpenDocument format, its graphical content, its chart content and its form content. It also describes content that is common to all documents. It describes the integration of SMIL animation markup into the OpenDocument schema. It explains style information content and specifies formatting properties that can be used within styles. The data types used by the OpenDocument schema are described. The OpenDocument format makes use of a package concept; these packages are described.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of
ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees
established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC
technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information
technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as
an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO/IEC 26300 was prepared by the OASIS OpenDocument Technical Committee [as OASIS Open
Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) v1.0 (second edition)] and was adopted, under the
PAS procedure, by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, in parallel with its
approval by the national bodies of ISO and IEC. The content of ISO/IEC 26300 and OASIS OpenDocument
v1.0 2nd ed. is identical.
