XML office doc format

June 9th, 2005 admin

Microsoft is making XML the default format for MS Office.

  1. The zip compressed XML file size claims to be 50 to 75% smaller !!!!
  2. 3rd party apps will have to upgrade to work with these new formats. Could be some work for design-tables, bend tables etc.
  3. Widely available schemas for this open format will help competitors like WordPerfect & openOffice :-)

Wondering how much time it will take CAD industry to adopt to open data format like this !.
