Which is rich considering they reverse-engineered MS Office formats to get their office suite to work
Is that true? I thought the specs were publicly available
AFAIK only the "new" formats are (for the basic apps, the ones ending on x). Apple's office suite is much older than those.
I think most if not all of those formats are plaintext? Open a .doc and it’s a heap of garbage XML-like soup.
It is now but the older formats used to be more like an executable byte code. Efficient but insecure.
