Convert FODT to TEIXML

The FODT file extension stands for OpenDocument Flat XML Document, primarily used for text documents. These files contain plain XML text, which makes them more accessible for version control and easier to integrate with software systems. OpenDocument, initially developed by OASIS in 2005, provides an open standard for office documents, ensuring compatibility and interoperability across various applications. FODT files, a subset of this standard, offer a simplified and flexible format for document exchange and storage, enhancing collaboration and consistency in document management within professional IT environments.

The TEIXML file extension refers to the Text Encoding Initiative XML (TEI XML), a standardized format for encoding texts in the humanities and social sciences. Developed in the 1980s, TEI XML facilitates the digital representation of texts, enabling detailed markup of structural, semantic, and presentational features. It is widely used for creating and sharing digital editions of texts, ensuring interoperability and preservation. TEI XML is an application of Extensible Markup Language (XML), that provides a flexible and robust framework for text encoding.
