OTP magic bytes (.otp)
.otp file signature: 50 4B | application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.presentation-template
Category: Office
OpenDocument Presentation Template (OTP) is a template file format defined and maintained by OASIS as part of the OpenDocument family. It is used by applications such as LibreOffice, Apache OpenOffice, and related office suites to create reusable presentation layouts, styles, and default content. The format is generally safe to open, though like other office templates it may contain embedded objects or macros in some implementations.
