- Description
- A DOTM file is a Word Open XML Macro-Enabled Document Template used by Microsoft Word, part of the Microsoft Office suite. It is a template file that contains default layouts and settings for a document, including macros, which are small programs that automate repetitive tasks. Unlike standard Word templates (.dotx), which do not support macros, DOTM files enable users to include custom macros that can be executed within the document. This feature is particularly useful for creating standardized documents that require specific automated functions.
- OTM (ODF Master Document Template) files are OpenDocument Text (ODT) templates used with LibreOffice Writer. They include the formatting, styles, text, and structure for creating a new document. OTM files can be used to create multiple documents with the same look and feel.
