XML Paper Specification (XPS) is a fixed-layout document format Microsoft created as an alternative to PDF. Like PDF, it captures a document exactly as it would print — fonts, images, and layout locked in place — so it looks identical on any screen or printer. An XPS file is a ZIP package of XML describing each page. Microsoft later standardised a revised version as OpenXPS, using the .oxps extension.
Windows includes the XPS Viewer, though on Windows 10 and 11 it is now an optional feature you may need to add through Settings → Apps → Optional features.
Cross-platform readers such as SumatraPDF and Okular open XPS on Windows and Linux, and GhostXPS converts it from the command line. Since XPS never gained wide adoption and PDF is supported everywhere, converting the file with our XPS to PDF tool is usually the simplest answer.
