About CSV and ODS

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is plain tabular data with no formulas, formatting, or multiple sheets — just rows and columns separated by commas.

ODS (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) is the open ISO-standard spreadsheet format used by LibreOffice Calc and OpenOffice Calc.

What to expect: CSV carries little to no formatting of its own, so the ODS output will start plain — you can add styling afterward in a compatible editor.
