One of the advantages of the method is that you get access to all embedded media files and fonts right away which speeds up the process significantly. The folder structure may differ depending on the document that you have extracted.Įxtracted ODT Office documents may have a Pictures folder in which all embedded images are stored in Word documents a word folder with media and fonts subfolders.

You may now open the extracted zip archive and explore its content. Most archive programs add context menu options. Right-click again on the file (now with zip extension) and select the extract option.The file test.odt would show up as test.zip afterward. Leave the file name but replace the file extension with.Right-click on the document that you want to extract and select rename from the context menu.Open Explorer and select View and make sure that "file name extensions" is checked under Show/hide there.The default file explorer hides the file extension for known file types by default which interferes with the renaming of files. If you see all file extensions in Explorer already skip to step 3.All you need is the document in question and an archive software. Office software does not need to be installed on the system for this to work and it is also supported on all platforms and not just Windows. Most extraction programs don't support the default Office file formats by default on the other hand which makes it necessary to rename the file extension of the files to zip before running the extraction. docx, xlsx, or odt, are zipped XML-based files and that means that they can be extracted using archive software such as Bandizip, 7-Zip and other programs. The main idea behind the trick is simple: the default document formats of Office suites, e.g. I reviewed a software program in 2011 called Office Image Extraction Wizard which automated the process but it has not been updated for a while.
