What is a XPS file?
XPS (XML Paper Specification) is a fixed-layout document format developed by Microsoft as an alternative to PDF. It preserves layout, fonts, and graphics for print-ready document sharing.

How to open XPS files
XPS files can be opened with the XPS Viewer included in Windows 7 and 8. On other platforms, use third-party XPS viewers or converters.
