What this tool does

ODT Viewer opens an OpenDocument text file and shows its contents in your browser, so you can read a .odt without installing LibreOffice or OpenOffice. Handy when someone sends an OpenDocument file and you just need to see what is inside.

How it works

Open or drop a .odt and the viewer renders the document in your browser so you can read it. Scroll through the content right in the page. Nothing is uploaded.
