OpenDocument Text
The OpenDocument Text format is one of a number of types of the Open Document Format for Office Applications (commonly referred to as OpenDocument), an XML-based file format defined by the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) in 2005.
OpenDocument Text can, like all OpenDocument files, be represented in one of two fashions - as a single XML document or as a collection of several sub-documents within a single package (commonly a ZIP archive). Generally, the extension .fodt is used for the uncommonly-used single XML documents and .odt for packaged sub-documents.

Image embedding issue
Both OpenOffice and LibreOffice are affected by a long-running bug where upon pasting an image into a document only a _hyperlink_ to the image is inserted by default (rather than the actual image data). More details can be found here. This bug was first reported in 2004, and as of 2013 it still hasn't been resolved.
