The ODF file extension is known as OpenDocument Formula which was created by OpenOffice.org Math.

They are based on the OASIS OpenDocument standard. For Mac Os users, these are the steps to display ODF in iWeb. First, user has to type the mathematical formulae in .odf file making it sure to have a big font size to avoid breaking apart the said formula. Then, Hold down the "Shift" and "Command" keys while pressing key “3” for a .png snapshot. Next is to hold and drag around the formula making sure to cut other unnecessary parts then press Command-K from Apple Preview for cropping. It has to be saved in JPEG format. Files in ODF format can be opened with OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice in Mac Os, Microsoft Windows and Linux platforms.

what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .odf. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
