Understanding UOS and XLSX file formats

UOS (Uniform Office Spreadsheet) is a spreadsheet file format used primarily by the Uniform Office Format (UOF) suite, which is popular in China. It is an open standard for office documents, similar to ODF (Open Document Format). XLSX is the widely-used spreadsheet format developed by Microsoft for Excel, based on the Office Open XML standard. XLSX files are compatible with most spreadsheet applications worldwide.
