| Description | STC is a file extension used for OpenOffice.org Calc Spreadsheet Templates. STC files are template files for creating and saving spreadsheets with OpenOffice.org Calc, which is a free and open-source software that provides features similar to Microsoft Excel. |
| Technical details | STC files contain pre-defined settings such as fonts, cell borders, and formatting styles that can be used to create spreadsheets. They allow users to save time by not having to re-create the same settings for each new spreadsheet. The STC file format is based on the OpenDocument Format (ODF), which is an international standard for document exchange. It is a compressed file format that uses the ZIP algorithm to reduce the file size. The contents of an STC file are stored in XML format, which is a machine-readable format that can be easily parsed and understood by software applications. |
