Synopsis of XML files stored in the archives supported by OpenTBS

-

Version 2020-05-10

Table of Contents

- - - -

LibreOffice & OpenOffice documents

- -

That is extensions ODT, ODS, ODG, ODF, ODP, ODM.

-

All simple quotes "'" in texts are coded with "'" but they are automatically replaced by the OpenTBS plugin.

-

The main information is stored in the file 'content.xml'.

-

The pictures are stored in the directory 'Pictures' and should be registered into the file 'META-INF/manifest.xml'. (OpenTBS does it automatically for you when you use parameter "addpic").

-

Since OpenOffice 3.2, if a picture is not registered in the Manifest file, then it can produce a message error when opening the document.

-

Video and sound cannot be stored in OpenOffice documents.

-   Normal new lines are made with a new paragraphs <text:p>...</text:p>
-   Simple new lines are made with <text:line-break/>
-   Tabs are made with <text:tab/>
-   Page-breaks are made with a new paragraph having a style which has the attribute fo:break-before="page" or fo:break-after="page".
-   Note that the page-break does not work if the attribute is in the paragraph element. A "break-before" at the first page, or a "break-after" on the last page has no effect.
-   Local styles (bold, color,...) are made with <text:span text:style-name="T1">...</text:span>

-  <text:p>
-    <text:span> CONTENT OF THE CELL </text:span>
-  </text:p>
-</table:table-cell>
-

Cell that are not displayed because of vertical merging or horizontal mergin, are replaced with <table:covered-table-cell/>. But such entities seems to be optionnal: LibreOffice display correclty the table if they are ommited.

-

Attributes table:number-rows-spanned="1" seems to be supported and has no effect.

- -

Cells merged horizontally

- -
<table:table-cell table:number-columns-spanned="2" office:value-type="string">

Headers and footers in a document

- - -

ODT and ODS

- -

Header and footer contents are saved in the "sytles.xml" file: You can choose for each page to hide or display the header and footer. Nevertheless, the contents is always the same for each page.

-
<office:document-styles ...>
-  <office:master-styles>
-    <style:master-page ...>
-      <style:header>
-        <text:p text:style-name="Header">here is the header</text:p>
-      </style:header>
-      <style:footer>
-        <text:p text:style-name="Footer">here is the footer</text:p>
-      </style:footer> 
-    </style:master-page>
-  </office:master-styles>
-</office:document-styles>
- - -

ODP

- -

Header and footer contents are saved in "content.xml" file. - They are defined as available styles and can be use for any slide and for the whole document in the "handout" view which is a set of several slide.

-
<office:presentation>
-
-  <presentation:header-decl presentation:name="hdr1">Here is my header</presentation:header-decl>
-  <presentation:footer-decl presentation:name="ftr1">Here is my footer for slide 1</presentation:footer-decl>
-  <presentation:footer-decl presentation:name="ftr2">Here is my footer</presentation:footer-decl>
-
-  <draw:page ... presentation:use-footer-name="ftr1">
-  </draw:page>
-  ...
-</office:presentation>

Charts

- -

The location of the chart is defined in the main subfile "contents.xml".

-
<text:p text:style-name="Standard">
-  <draw:frame draw:name="My name" text:anchor-type="paragraph" svg:x="2.401cm" svg:y="1.379cm" svg:width="14.102cm" svg:height="7.622cm" draw:z-index="0">
-    <draw:object xlink:href="./Object 1" xlink:type="simple" xlink:show="embed" xlink:actuate="onLoad" />
-    <draw:image xlink:href="./ObjectReplacements/Object 1" xlink:type="simple" xlink:show="embed" xlink:actuate="onLoad" />
-    <svg:title>My title</svg:title>
-    <svg:desc>My description</svg:desc>
-  </draw:frame>
-</text:p>
-

An image preview is saved in the file "ObjectReplacements/Object 1", and this image will be displayed -automatically instead of the real Chart view until the chart is manually changed in the document.

-

In order to avoid this preview, the followings must be deteled :

- -

Data and properties of the chart are saved into the corresponding subdirectory "Object 1".

-

Data are saved in "Object 1/contents.xml" in a local table that groups data of all series of the chart.

-

If the document is an ODS workbook then the local table is still in the chart, but it is used as a cache for data. And series has a reference to cells in the workbook instead of cells in the local table.

-
-

With ODS, if the cached data are modified then, it is useless since the software will update the cached data with the cells in the workbook.

-

With ODS, if references of a series are replaced with references of the local table, then the document will be opened with no error but the software will assume that all series are linked to the local table.

What are attributes "w:rsidR" and "w:rsidRPr" for?

-

Attribute "w:rsidR" is a Revision ID. Each new user on a doc has a new id, -and each of its modification is marked with its RsID.

Headers and footers (DOCX)

- -

They are 3 types of headers and footers in Microsoft Word : Default, Even (for even numbered pages only) and First (for the first page only). Event and First types are optional.

-

Each section of the document may have its own set of header/footer of the 3 types, but by default a new section has his headers/footers linked with the previous sections.

-

Each headers and footers are saved in separated XML file. If no header/footer is defined for the document, then they are no header nor footer XML files. Even and First headers are optional, they may not be defined for a section, and so have no corresponding XML files.

-

Example of header and footer files: "word/header1.xml" and "word/footer1.xml".

-

The actual type and locations of Headers and Footers are defined in the main document "word/document.xml"with the section's properties.

-
<w:sectPr>
-  <w:headerReference w:type="default" r:id="rId13"/>
-  <w:footerReference w:type="default" r:id="rId14"/>
-  <w:headerReference w:type="first" r:id="rId15"/>
-  <w:footerReference w:type="first" r:id="rId16"/>
-  <w:headerReference w:type="even" r:id="rId17"/>
-  <w:footerReference w:type="even" r:id="rId18"/>
-<w:sectPr>
- -
Relation files
- -

The information related to r:id are stored in the file "word/_rels/document.xml.rels"

-
<Relationships xmlns="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/package/2006/relationships">
-  <Relationship Id="rId8" Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/image" Target="media/image1.png"/>
-  <Relationship Id="rId13" Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/header" Target="header1.xml"/>
-  ...
-</Relationships>
-

Locations are also appering in the file "[Content_Types].xml", in the elements like: -

-
<Override PartName="/word/header1.xml" ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.header+xml"/>
-   // and
-<Override PartName="/word/footer1.xml" ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.footer+xml"/>
-

Some referenced header/footers may have no actual files because of no data.

- -
Example of header source:
- -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
-
-<w:hdr ...>
-  <w:p>
-    <w:pPr><w:pStyle w:val="my_header"/></w:pPr>
-    <w:r>
-      <w:t>here is the text of the header</w:t>

Charts (DOCX)

- -

The first chart is saved under "word/charts/chart1.xml", and so on for the next ones.

-

There is two way of storing the chart's data : directly in the chart (data is qualified as literal) or in an internal Excel spreadsheet (data is qualified as referenced).

-
-

By default, the software stores data in an internal Excel Spreadsheet embedded in the DOCX document
- For example: "word/embeddings/Worksheet_Microsoft_Excel1.xlsx".). And the path of the Excel file is saved into "word/charts/_rels/chart1.xml.rels".
-The chart file contains both the references to cells in the spreadsheet and the cached values.

-

If the cached values are modified, then the software will update them according to the internal Excel Spreadsheet when the document is opened.

-

If the internal Excel Spreadsheet and its link to the chart are deleted, then the software will open the docuement with no error, and will use the caced values as if it was literal values.

-
-

It possible to manually change the definition of a series to have it litral inseat of referenced.

-

Title of the chart, the axes and the series are saved in "chart1.xml". Other custom text boxes are saved in a shape file. For example : "word/drawings/drawing1.xml".

-

Example of a series saved in the XML (the tags are different for an XY series):

-
<c:ser>
-
-  <c:idx val="0"/>
-  <c:order val="0"/>
-
-  <c:tx>
-    <c:strRef>
-      <c:f>Sheet1!$A$2</c:f>

Pictures (DOCX)

- -

Binary contents is saved as a file in "word/media/".

-

Image link saved into "word/_rels/document.xml.rels": <Relationship Id="rId6" Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/image" Target="media/image1.png"/>

-

They are two ways to insert a picture.

-
1) VML (old way)
-

(short synopsis)

-
<w:pict>
-  <v:shapetype ...>
-  ...
-  </v:shapetype>
-  <v:shape style="width:89.25pt;height:119.25pt" ...> // this element contains the size of the picture
-    <v:imagedata r:id="rId6" o:title=""/> // this element contains the link to the picture internal file
-  </v:shape>
-</w:pict>
-
-
2) DrawingML (the new way that includes 2D/3D effects)
-

(short synopsis)

-

The <w:drawing> element is always included into an dedicated <w:r> element, itself always contained into a <w:p> element.

-

This is true even if the picture is positioned as a character or over the text. And it doesn’t matter on what is anchored the picture.

-
<w:drawing> 
-  <wp:inline ...>
-    <wp:extent cx="1130400" cy="1512000" /> // this element gives the size of the shape box that contains the picture
-    <wp:docPr id="1" name="Image 1" descr="My description" title="My title"/> // this optional element gives the description and title of the image
-    <wp:docPr id="1" name="Image 0" descr="2884414-my_picture.jpg">
-      <a:hlinkClick xmlns:a="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main" r:id="rId4" tooltip="My tooltip"/> // this optional element gives the URL and tooltip of the link if any. In Word 2007 you cannot customize the title and desciption
-    </wp:docPr>

Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (XLSX)

- -

General

- -

An Excel workbook can have one or several worksheets. The contents of cells are saved in worksheets. - Worksheets files are named "xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml", and also sheet2.xml, sheet3.xml...

-

The file names are not the names defined in Excel by the user, they are internal names. But it seems that there is always at least a worksheet named "sheet1.xml".

-

All string values of cells are stored in the file "xl/sharedStrings.xml". The cells contains in fact the index of the string in the sharedStrings.xml file. This separation will probably make difficulties to merge an Excel sheet.

-

All sheets of the workbook are listed in the file "xl/workbook.xml".

-

Synopsis of a sheet file like "xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml" (XLSX)

<worksheet>
-   ...

-       // A range of one row in wich several cells are defined
-       <c r="B2" s="1" t="s">
-         /* Definition of a cell:
-          * Attribute r is the address if the cell in the sheet (format A1). This attribute is optional.
-          * Attribute s is the style of the cell (the format). Styles are saved into the file 'xl/styles.xml' but I have not found the link yet.
-          * Attribute t is the type of data, by default it is numerical
-          * t="s" means that the displayed value is a string, the saved value is the index if the string taken in file "sharedStrings.xml".
-          * b: boolean, d: date, e: error, n: number, s: shared string, inlineStr: inlinde string, str: string as the result of a formula

Headers and footers (XLSX)

- -

Like as DCX, they can be up to 6 headers/footers for each sheet.
- Header and footers are saved in the sheet file.

-
<headerFooter differentOddEven="1" differentFirst="1">
-  <oddHeader>My header for odd page in this sheet</oddHeader>

Charts (XLSX)

- -

Same as Charts for DOCX, but there is no embedded spreadsheet, data are referenced to cells in any worksheet of the current workbook.

-

As for DOCX, data which is referenced to cells can be manually modified into literal data in a chart.

Pictures (XLSX)

- -

Binary contents is saved as a file in "xl/media/".

-

The presence of pictures in the sheet is mentioned with a single <drawing> entity at the bottom of the <worksheet> entity. The <drawing> entity carries a reference id, which is defined the Rels file of the sheet. All properties of all the pictures in a sheet are finally saved in a third XML file.

-
File "xl\worksheets\sheet1.xml"
-
<worksheet ...>
-   ...
-   <drawing r:id="rId2"/> // (only one entity for all pictures in the sheet)

Microsoft PowerPoint presentation (PPTX)

- -

General

- -

Think to set all texts to "Tools » Language » No check" when you edit the PowerPoint presentation, otherwise some TBS fields can be split by XML tags about the language and spell checking.

-

Slides are listed in the file "ppt/_rels/presentation.xml.rels", where an internal id is affected to them.

-

The first slide is quite always corresponding to the file "ppt/slides/slide1.xml".

-

-

Header and footer of each slide is saved in the sub-file of the slide ("ppt/slides/slide1.xml" for example).

Synopsis of XML files stored in the archives supported by OpenTBS

+

Version 2020-05-10

+

Extensions: odt, odg, ods, odf, odp, docx, xlsx and pptx

+

This file is incomplete, feel free to send your own comments to: http://www.tinybutstrong.com/onlyyou.html

+ +

Table of Contents

+ + +

LibreOffice & OpenOffice documents

+

That is extensions ODT, ODS, ODG, ODF, ODP, ODM.

+

All simple quotes "'" in texts are coded with "&apos;" + but they are automatically replaced by the OpenTBS plugin.

+

The main information is stored in the file 'content.xml'.

+

The pictures are stored in the directory 'Pictures' and + should be registered into the file 'META-INF/manifest.xml'. + (OpenTBS does it automatically for you when you use parameter "addpic").

+

Since OpenOffice 3.2, if a picture is not registered in the Manifest + file, then it can produce a message error when opening the document.

+

Video and sound cannot be stored in OpenOffice documents.

Headers and footers in a document

+ +

ODT and ODS

+

Header and footer contents are saved in the "sytles.xml" + file: You can choose for each page to hide or display the header and + footer. Nevertheless, the contents is always the same for each page.

+ 
<office:document-styles ...>
+  <office:master-styles>

+      <style:header>
+        <text:p text:style-name="Header">here is the header</text:p>

+  </office:master-styles>
+</office:document-styles>
+ +

ODP

+

Header and footer contents are saved in "content.xml" file. + They are defined as available styles and can be use for any slide and + for the whole document in the "handout" view which is a set of several + slide.

+ 
<office:presentation>
+

+ +

Charts

+

The location of the chart is defined in the main subfile "contents.xml".

+ 
<text:p text:style-name="Standard">
+  <draw:frame draw:name="My name" text:anchor-type="paragraph" svg:x="2.401cm" svg:y="1.379cm" svg:width="14.102cm" svg:height="7.622cm" draw:z-index="0">
+    <draw:object xlink:href="./Object 1" xlink:type="simple" xlink:show="embed" xlink:actuate="onLoad" />
+    <draw:image xlink:href="./ObjectReplacements/Object 1" xlink:type="simple" xlink:show="embed" xlink:actuate="onLoad" />
+    <svg:title>My title</svg:title>
+    <svg:desc>My description</svg:desc>
+  </draw:frame>
+</text:p>
+

An image preview is saved in the file "ObjectReplacements/Object + 1", and this image will be displayed automatically instead of the + real Chart view until the chart is manually changed in the document.

+

In order to avoid this preview, the followings must be deteled :

+ +

Data and properties of the chart are saved into the corresponding + subdirectory "Object 1".

+

Data are saved in "Object 1/contents.xml" in a local table + that groups data of all series of the chart.

+

If the document is an ODS workbook then the local table is still in the + chart, but it is used as a cache for data. And series has a reference to + cells in the workbook instead of cells in the local table.

+
+

With ODS, if the cached data are modified then, it is useless since + the software will update the cached data with the cells in the + workbook.

+

With ODS, if references of a series are replaced with references of + the local table, then the document will be opened with no error but + the software will assume that all series are linked to the local + table.

What are attributes "w:rsidR" and "w:rsidRPr" + for?

+

Attribute "w:rsidR" is a Revision ID. Each new user on a + doc has a new id, and each of its modification is marked with its RsID. +

Headers and footers (DOCX)

+

They are 3 types of headers and footers in Microsoft Word : Default, + Even (for even numbered pages only) and First (for the first page only). + Event and First types are optional.

+

Each section of the document may have its own set of header/footer of + the 3 types, but by default a new section has his headers/footers linked + with the previous sections.

+

Each headers and footers are saved in separated XML file. If no + header/footer is defined for the document, then they are no header nor + footer XML files. Even and First headers are optional, they may not be + defined for a section, and so have no corresponding XML files.

+

Example of header and footer files: "word/header1.xml" and "word/footer1.xml".

+

The actual type and locations of Headers and Footers are defined in the + main document "word/document.xml"with the section's + properties.

+ 
<w:sectPr>
+  <w:headerReference w:type="default" r:id="rId13"/>
+  <w:footerReference w:type="default" r:id="rId14"/>
+  <w:headerReference w:type="first" r:id="rId15"/>
+  <w:footerReference w:type="first" r:id="rId16"/>
+  <w:headerReference w:type="even" r:id="rId17"/>
+  <w:footerReference w:type="even" r:id="rId18"/>
+<w:sectPr>
+
Relation files
+

The information related to r:id are stored in the file "word/_rels/document.xml.rels"

+ 
<Relationships xmlns="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/package/2006/relationships">
+  <Relationship Id="rId8" Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/image" Target="media/image1.png"/>
+  <Relationship Id="rId13" Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/header" Target="header1.xml"/>
+  ...
+</Relationships>
+

Locations are also appering in the file "[Content_Types].xml", + in the elements like:

+ 
<Override PartName="/word/header1.xml" ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.header+xml"/>
+   // and
+<Override PartName="/word/footer1.xml" ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.footer+xml"/>
+

Some referenced header/footers may have no actual files because of no + data.

+
Example of header source:
+ 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
+
+<w:hdr ...>
+  <w:p>
+    <w:pPr><w:pStyle w:val="my_header"/></w:pPr>
+    <w:r>

Charts (DOCX)

+

The first chart is saved under "word/charts/chart1.xml", and + so on for the next ones.

+

There is two way of storing the chart's data : directly in the chart + (data is qualified as literal) or in an internal Excel + spreadsheet (data is qualified as referenced).

+
+

By default, the software stores data in an internal Excel Spreadsheet + embedded in the DOCX document
+ For example: "word/embeddings/Worksheet_Microsoft_Excel1.xlsx".). + And the path of the Excel file is saved into "word/charts/_rels/chart1.xml.rels".
+ The chart file contains both the references to cells in the + spreadsheet and the cached values.

+

If the cached values are modified, then the software will update them + according to the internal Excel Spreadsheet when the document is + opened.

+

If the internal Excel Spreadsheet and its link to the chart are + deleted, then the software will open the docuement with no error, and + will use the caced values as if it was literal values.

+
+

It possible to manually change the definition of a series to have it litral + inseat of referenced.

+

Title of the chart, the axes and the series are saved in "chart1.xml". + Other custom text boxes are saved in a shape file. For example : + "word/drawings/drawing1.xml".

+

Example of a series saved in the XML (the tags are different for an XY + series):

+ 
<c:ser>
+
+  <c:idx val="0"/>
+  <c:order val="0"/>
+
+  <c:tx>

Pictures (DOCX)

+

Binary contents is saved as a file in "word/media/".

+

Image link saved into "word/_rels/document.xml.rels": <Relationship + Id="rId6" + Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/image" + Target="media/image1.png"/>

+

They are two ways to insert a picture.

+
1) DrawingML (the new way that includes 2D/3D effects)
+

(short synopsis)

+

The <w:drawing> element is always included into an + dedicated <w:r> element, itself always contained + into a <w:p> element.

+

This is true even if the picture is positioned as a character or over + the text. And it doesn’t matter on what is anchored the picture.

+ 
<w:drawing> 
+  <wp:inline ...>
+    <wp:extent cx="1130400" cy="1512000" /> // this element gives the size of the shape box that contains the picture
+    <wp:docPr   
       id="1"
       name="Image 1"
       descr="My description"   // Alternative Text for the picture
       title="My title"         // Title coming with the Alternative Text, no more available with Ms Office 2019
     /> 
+    <wp:docPr id="1" name="Image 0" descr="2884414-my_picture.jpg">
+      <a:hlinkClick xmlns:a="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main" r:id="rId4" tooltip="My tooltip"/> // this optional element gives the URL and tooltip of the link if any. In Word 2007 you cannot customize the title and desciption
+    </wp:docPr>
+    <a:graphic ...>
+      <a:graphicData ...>
+        <pic:pic ...>

          <pic:nvPicPr> // optional element found in version in 2022, the description is duplicated from above
+            <pic:cNvPr id="1" name="Image 1" descr="My description"/>
+	    <pic:cNvPicPr/>
+          </pic:nvPicPr>

          <pic:blipFill>
+            <a:blip r:embed="rId4" /> // this element contains the link to the picture internal file
+          </pic:blipFill>
+
+          <pic:spPr ...>
+            <a:xfrm>
+              <a:off x="0" y="0" />
+              <a:ext cx="1130400" cy="1512000" /> // this element gives the size of the picture inside its shape box, it can be rescaled to fit in the shape box
+            </a:xfrm>
+            <a:prstGeom prst="rect"><a:avLst /></a:prstGeom>
+            <a:noFill />
+            <a:ln><a:noFill /></a:ln>
+          </pic:spPr>
+
+        </pic:pic>
+      </a:graphicData>
+    </a:graphic>
+  </wp:inline>
+</w:drawing>
+

Special contents for an SVG picture:

+ 
<pic:blipFill>
+    <a:blip r:embed="rId4"> // link to an PNG picture that is a cached picture of the actual SVG picture

        <a:extLst>
+            <a:ext uri="{28A0092B-C50C-407E-A947-70E740481C1C}">
+                <a14:useLocalDpi xmlns:a14="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/drawing/2010/main" val="0"/>
+            </a:ext>
+            <a:ext uri="{96DAC541-7B7A-43D3-8B79-37D633B846F1}">
+                <asvg:svgBlip xmlns:asvg="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/drawing/2016/SVG/main" r:embed="rId5"/> // link to the actual SVG
+            </a:ext>
+        </a:extLst>

    </a:blip>
+    <a:stretch>
+        <a:fillRect/>
+    </a:stretch>
+</pic:blipFill>
+
+
+

Tech note: if value rId4 is replaced with rId5 + then document is valid for both Ms Office and LibreOffice.

+
2) VML (old way)
+

(short synopsis)

+ 
<w:pict>
+  <v:shapetype ...>
+  ...
+  </v:shapetype>
+  <v:shape style="width:89.25pt;height:119.25pt" ...> // this element contains the size of the picture
+    <v:imagedata r:id="rId6" o:title=""/> // this element contains the link to the picture internal file

Microsoft Excel spreadsheet (XLSX)

+

General

+

An Excel workbook can have one or several worksheets. The contents of + cells are saved in worksheets. Worksheets files are named "xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml", + and also sheet2.xml, sheet3.xml...

+

The file names are not the names defined in Excel by the user, they + are internal names. But it seems that there is always at least a + worksheet named "sheet1.xml".

+

All string values of cells are stored in the file "xl/sharedStrings.xml". + The cells contains in fact the index of the string in the + sharedStrings.xml file. This separation will probably make difficulties + to merge an Excel sheet.

+

All sheets of the workbook are listed in the file "xl/workbook.xml".

+

Synopsis of a sheet file like "xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml" + (XLSX)

+ 
<worksheet>
+   ...
+   <sheetData>
+
+     <row r="2" spans="2:2" ht="90">
+       // A range of one row in wich several cells are defined
+       <c r="B2" s="1" t="s">
+         /* Definition of a cell:
+          * Attribute r is the address if the cell in the sheet (format A1). This attribute is optional.
+          * Attribute s is the style of the cell (the format). Styles are saved into the file 'xl/styles.xml' but I have not found the link yet.
+          * Attribute t is the type of data, by default it is numerical
+          * t="s" means that the displayed value is a string, the saved value is the index if the string taken in file "sharedStrings.xml".
+          * b: boolean, d: date, e: error, n: number, s: shared string, inlineStr: inlinde string, str: string as the result of a formula
+          */
+         <f>B13+B14</f> // The formula if any. If there is no formula, this tag is absent. The type of <c> is the type of the result.
+         <v>0</v> // The inner value without formatting.
+                  // If t="s"   then the value is in fact the index of the string in the "xl/sharedStrings.xml" file.
+                  // If t="str" then the value is the string result of the formula.
+       </c>
+       <c r="C2" s="1" t="inlineStr">
+         /* The type "inlineStr" is a special value that allows the string to be stored in the cell instead of in the file "sharedStrings.xml".
+          * It is used by OpenTBS to transert string with TBS fields from "sharedStrings.xml" into the XML of the sheet.
+          */

Like as DCX, they can be up to 6 headers/footers for each sheet.
+ Header and footers are saved in the sheet file.

+ 
<headerFooter differentOddEven="1" differentFirst="1">
+  <oddHeader>My header for odd page in this sheet</oddHeader>
+  <evenHeader>My header for even page in this sheet</evenHeader>
+  <firstHeader>My header for first page in this sheet</firstHeader>
+</headerFooter>

Pictures (XLSX)

+

Binary contents is saved as a file in "xl/media/".

+

The presence of pictures in the sheet is mentioned with a single <drawing> + entity at the bottom of the <worksheet> entity. The + <drawing> entity carries a reference id, which is + defined the Rels file of the sheet. All properties of all the pictures + in a sheet are finally saved in a third XML file.

+
File "xl\worksheets\sheet1.xml"
+ 
<worksheet ...>
+   ...
+   <drawing r:id="rId2"/> // (only one entity for all pictures in the sheet)
+</worksheet>
+
File "xl\worksheets\_rels\sheet1.xml.rels"
+ 
<Relationship Id="rId2" Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/drawing" Target="../drawings/drawing1.xml"/>
+// (only one entity for all pictures in the sheet)
+
File "xl\drawings\drawing1.xml"
+

(short synopsis, one entity per picture in the sheet)

Microsoft PowerPoint presentation (PPTX)

+

General

+

Think to set all texts to "Tools » Language » No check" when + you edit the PowerPoint presentation, otherwise some TBS fields can be + split by XML tags about the language and spell checking.

+

Slides are listed in the file "ppt/_rels/presentation.xml.rels", + where an internal id is affected to them.

+

The first slide is quite always corresponding to the file "ppt/slides/slide1.xml".
