XPS (XML Paper Specification) is an XML-based, fixed-layout graphics format implemented by Microsoft, designed to print the content, while preserving the accuracy of the documents. The XPS format is essentially an alternative (MSFT) to the popular PDF format from Adobe, and the XPS document is simpler and easier than PDF. Besides, it supports multi-thread, views, it is secure (currently does not have official script support), supports encryption and digital certificates. It is recommended to create an XPS document for files that contain graphic images or illustrations which can be displayed differently on different computers and monitors.

Windows 10 natively supports the printing and viewing of XPS files. The XPS file can be created in any program, where there is a print function. To do this, you need to send your document to print and then select Microsoft XPS Document Writer as the print device.

The easiest way to open an XPS file is to use the XPS Viewer tool, which is already installed by default in Windows.
