    Why is ODS not an allowed file type?
    ODT is allowed and xls/xlsx but not ODS, why?

    Does any body have an idea how to get a ods into the library (ziping did not work either).

    Thanx

    The only workaround I can suggest is to convert the file to a PDF. I don’t know if OpenOffice can do that automatically, but you’ll find several online services and even downloadable software that can do it (I use PrimoPDF). If you need a document that can be downloaded and edited you can also look for an online converter that can convert it into xls/xlsx format.

    No, you can only upload zipped files if you have the space upgrade: http://en.support.wordpress.com/accepted-filetypes/#documents

    Why don’t you suggest the inclusion of this file format in the Ideas forum? It’s no guarantee and won’t fix your immediate problem, but it’s worth a try for the future: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/forum/ideas#postform
