Open ODM File
Here, the ODM file acts as a master text document created by Apache OpenOffice or another word processor that supports the OpenDocument standard.
The ODM stores links to external files that actually contain the content of the document, however it can also include a table of contents and an index.
One of the benefits of the ODM document, just like a master document, is that it allows multiple writers to work on separate pieces of a large document at the same time.
This is useful when creating large books, periodicals, or other compilations, such as PhD theses, among others.
ODM files are based on the XML format.
The OpenDocument format, ODF, is an internationally standardized set, through ISO / IEC 26300, of XML-based open document file formats that cover common office tasks.
