Enabling the future
Preserving Legacy
Developing meaningful, useful XML-based formats
Some standards committees attempt to define the future of interoperability, but ignore the importance of preserving existing documents
XML based formats must solve for the future, but work to preserve the integrity of existing documents
Introducing the Ecma Office Open XML Formats(ISO 29500)
Office Open XML Formats
Open File Formats
• Intl standard for document formats (December 2006) ISO 29500 (April 2008)• Designed to enable interoperability• Open Specifications enable broad access to technology
The future of file format technology
• ZIP compression of the format reduces file sizes• Segmented data storage improves data recovery and programmatic access• Full accessibility support
Compatible file formats
• Standardized file formats supporting 100% of Microsoft Office functionality• Supported in Microsoft Office 2000, XP, 2003 and 2007, as well as OpenOffice.org and Corel WordPerfect Suite*• Document conversion, deployment and migration tools available
Ecma Office Open XML FormatsSpecifications published by ECMA international TC-45, freely available for download and implementation
TC-45 is comprised of many companies – Apple, Novell, Toshiba, Microsoft, Statoil and others
Microsoft offers the Open Specification Promise to alleviate all IP-related concerns for the Open XML formats
New improved version ratified by ISO as ISO/IEC 29500 on April 1st, 2008
Open XML Formats Architecture Modular format improves developer capabilities with minimal user impact
Office “file”Operates identically to any other Windows desktop file. User sees and interacts with the desktop file exactly as they do with today.
Internal operationDifferent types of data within each file stored as discreet, ZIP-compressed XML components
Users would not see these components unless they un-ZIP the file to view the document parts
Applications and systems could modify and extract individual parts without using Office applications
The corruption or absence of any part would not prohibit the file from being opened
Deployment ConsiderationsOffice Migration Planning ManagerProactively Identify File Format Issues
In "Deep Scan" identifies and prioritizes issues found
Severity levels customizable
Examples of conversion or compatibility challenges:
Loss of version history
Change in rendering or layout
Calculation change due to formulae changes
Office File Conversion ToolUnleash data through XML
Uses output from the Microsoft Office Migration Planning Manager
Not a requirement for Office 2007 deployment
Converts old documents to the new Open XML Formats
Runs documents through an open-and-save-as process.
Application Customization Options
