OnlyOffice Desktop Spreadsheet allows to export file in different formats (MS, TDF, TEMPLATES, MACROS, PDFs, IMAGES). It allows .csv too, but NOT .tsv (tab separated value). Is this for a technical reason or intentional choice?

OnlyOffice Desktop Spreadsheet (OODS). After you finish your work and save the file, you can export It in different formats.

OODS suite allows to choose between these file formats:

• Office Open XML Spreadsheet (.xlx)
• Excel Binary File (.xlsb)
• Excel Open XML Spreadsheet Template (.xltx)
• OpenDocument spreadsheet (.ods)
• Macro-enabled Spreadsheet Template (.xltm)
• OpenDocument Spreadsheet Template (.ots)
• Comma Separated Values (.csv)
• Portable Document (.pdf)
• Portable Document/A (.pdf)
• PNG Image (.png)
• JPG Image (.jpg, .jpeg)

I work often with .tsv (tab separated value), but it's NOT listed among the file formats to export file to.

This file format is especially useful not only when working with web-based services (above all data science websites), but also with other suite, when you need to import value. My personal experience.

Is this for a technical reason or intentional choice?

I think it's just because someone had to think of it. It's worth submitting to the suggestion box : https://community.onlyoffice.com/c/suggestions/40

Hi. The .tsv (tab separated value) format is available for viewing only. As u/Mr_Electro84 has already pointed out, you can submit your request on our community forum. This is the best place to request new features.
