+Introduction
+------------
+
+The odsfile is LuaLaTeX package and lua library for working with
+opendocument spreadsheet (ods) documents from Open/Libre Office Calc.
+It is possible to select cells from sheets and typeset them as LaTeX tables,
+it is also possible to pass these data to LaTeX macros and make some plots,
+for example.
+
+There is also simple interface to add data to existing spreadsheets. This
+functionality requires external zip utility.
+
+This package uses LuaTeX's zip library and scripting to read these files.
+It also requires LuaXML library, which is available to download from
+CTAN site.
+
+Because of lua scripting, it is not possible to use this package with pdfLaTeX
+or XeLaTeX. On the other side, odsfile.lua library can be used from PlainTeX,
+ConTeXt or pure lua scripts.
+
+It may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions of the
+LaTeX Project Public License (LPPL), either version 1.3c of this license or
+(at your option) any later version. The latest version of this license is in
+
+ http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt
+
+and version 1.3 or later is part of all distributions of LaTeX version
+2005/12/01 or later.
