OpenDocument Text (ODT) is the word-processing format of the OpenDocument standard, the default in LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice. An ODT is a ZIP package containing XML for the text and styles plus any embedded images. Because the specification is published as ISO/IEC 26300 and controlled by no single vendor, ODT is widely used by governments and public institutions that need documents to stay readable for decades.
How to open an ODT file?
LibreOffice Writer is the natural application for ODT, since it implements the standard in full.
You do not need it, though: Microsoft Word has opened and saved ODT since 2009, Google Docs imports it, and Apache OpenOffice Writer handles it natively. Complex layouts can shift a little when moving between suites, so convert the file with our ODT to PDF tool when exact formatting matters.

A TEXT file is an ordinary plain-text document, the same thing as a .txt file — unformatted characters with no styling, images, or layout attached. Everything the file contains is readable as-is, which is why plain text is used for notes, logs, configuration files, source code, and data exports. The only piece of hidden information is the character encoding, typically UTF-8, which tells software how to turn the stored bytes back into letters.
How to open a TEXT file?
Any text editor will do. Notepad on Windows, TextEdit on macOS, and gedit on Linux all open the file instantly, and so does every web browser.
If the document is very large or contains code, Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code handle it far more comfortably and let you switch encodings when characters display incorrectly. Word processors such as Microsoft Word and LibreOffice Writer can import the text if you want to add formatting. You can also convert the file with our TXT to PDF tool.
