- resoluteteeth 3y agoThe OOXML format is heavily oriented around internal details of Office in ways that makes it pretty inconvenient to work with even if it's "open". Also IIRC some more esoteric parts are just binary blobs that aren't actually documented and the specifications just say to do what Office does.
