iWork is the Mac equivalent of MS Office.

The Pages, Keynote (presentation tool), and Numbers (spreadsheet tool) all use the iWork database format. ePub is a supported output.

[edit] IWA

The contents of an Index.zip file includes a Tables folder and a set of IWA files (iWorks Archive format). This format uses Snappy Compression (an open format developed by Google) using the framing format. It is a package format contained in a folder where the name of the folder is the document name. For distribution this folder and its content are normally zipped.
