What is an OTS file?

An OTS file is a spreadsheet template created by the Calc program included in Apache OpenOffice (formerly OpenOffice.org). It contains a spreadsheet saved in OASIS' OpenDocument XML-based formatting. Calc users create OTS files to replicate spreadsheets with the same styles and formatting as .ODS files .
