About ODP and XLS

ODP (OpenDocument Presentation) is the open ISO-standard presentation format used by LibreOffice Impress and OpenOffice Impress.

XLS (Microsoft Excel 97-2003 Workbook) is Excel's legacy binary format, still common on older systems though superseded by XLSX.

What to expect: ODP and XLS support similar formatting, so most content and structure should carry over cleanly.
