- The xlsb file type is a binary file format used to store Excel spreadsheets. It is a compressed version of the xlsx file type and can only be opened in the Microsoft Excel application. Compared to the xlsx, the xlsb format is much smaller in size and is less prone to corruption.
- OpenDocument Spreadsheet Template (OTS) files are template files used for creating spreadsheet documents using the OpenDocument format. OTS files contain a pre-defined set of data and styles that can be used to quickly create a spreadsheet, such as a price list or accounting ledger. The OTS format is supported by many spreadsheet programs, including OpenOffice, LibreOffice, and Microsoft Office.
