What is the main difference between AZW3 and XLSX?

AZW3 operates as a lossless format developed by Amazon.com, Inc. using Dual-Layer PalmDOC/KF8 Container (MOBI 7 fallback + HTML5/CSS3 partition), whereas XLSX is a lossless format developed by Document Standards Committee using Structured Document Object Stream. AZW3 is primarily optimized for Modern Kindle e-books with sophisticated typography, embedded fonts, and fixed-layout digital comics (0.5 MB – 10.0 MB per digital book), while XLSX is designed for Digital publishing, office workflows, and structured document distribution (0.05 MB – 10 MB per document).
