The WPD format and its associated .wpd filename extension is text document file format developed by Satellite Systems International. It was released as the native file format for the company's WordPerfect word processing application. The company and its digital assets were later acquired by Corel in 1996 who have maintained active development of the format and the software application. Though WordPerfect was initially cross platform with support for MS-DOS, Mac, and Windows, by 1997, there was only Microsoft Windows compatibility and support. The format, despite being a text document format, has support for formatted text, simple tables as well as drawn objects.
The Open Document Text filename extension format is an alternative open source document and text processing file format allowing users to create text documents that can be opened and edited by an extensive list of document processing applications. Both proprietary applications (such as in Microsoft Office word) and open source document processing applications (such as OpenOffice) support the .odt filename extension allowing for interoperability between software systems. The format is useful to those creating documents meant to target a wide audience and not necessarily an audience with a specific document processing suite. The extension was first released in 2005.

The WPD format supports several advanced text formatting features in addition to those mentioned in the description including support for graphs, mail merging, indexing, searching, as well as tables such as contents tables. The format is split in blocks with formatting information stored in tags found within one or more blocks in the format. Information embedding is also supported allowing a WPD document to include hyperlinks, templates, databases, and spreadsheets.
Extended from an XML based file format for documents, .odt was standardized as an open source format for text document processing in ISO/IEC 26300:2006 in 2005 by the OASIS consortium. The filename extension is primarily associated with Apache OpenOffice Suite. As a format, .odt supports several predefined and user customizable metadata fields such as document statistics, title, subject etc. It possesses advanced document processing capabilities such as lists, headings, and numbered paragraphs. Other features include auto generated tables such as bibliographies, indexes, and table of contents.
