Digital Speech Standard (DSS) is a proprietary compressed digital audio file format defined by the International Voice Association, a co-operative venture by Olympus, Philips and Grundig. DSS was originally developed in 1994 by Grundig with the University of Nuremberg. In 1997, the digital speech standard was released, which was based on the previous codec. It is commonly used on digital dictation recorders. Modern phycoacoustical codecs that perform nearly as well at only slightly higher bitrates have led to this speech coding standard being less used in modern voice recording equipment.
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.
