OpenDoc was a software componentry framework standard for compound documents, inspired by (and intended as an alternative to) Microsoft's object linking and embedding (OLE). It was initially created by Apple Inc. in 1992 after Microsoft approached Apple asking for input on a proposed OLE II project. Apple reviewed the crude prototype and document and returned a list of problems they saw with the design. Microsoft wasn't interested so Apple decided for competitive reasons that it should have an alternative and decided to create OpenDoc.

abstract
  • OpenDoc was a software componentry framework standard for compound documents, inspired by (and intended as an alternative to) Microsoft's object linking and embedding (OLE). It was initially created by Apple Inc. in 1992 after Microsoft approached Apple asking for input on a proposed OLE II project. Apple reviewed the crude prototype and document and returned a list of problems they saw with the design. Microsoft wasn't interested so Apple decided for competitive reasons that it should have an alternative and decided to create OpenDoc. Initially it was code named "Exemplar", then "Jedi" and "Amber" before being released under the name OpenDoc. The development team realized in mid-1992 that an industry coalition was needed and created the Component Integration Laboratories with IBM and WordPerfect. but in 1996 it was adopted by the Object Management Group. Kurt Piersol from Apple Inc. was the most well known of the architects of OpenDoc, but Jed Harris (later president of CILabs) was just as critical to the early designs. Mark Ericson from WordPerfect provided the vision for a port to Windows that included seamless interoperability between OpenDoc and OLE.
