Creating an XPS Document


The XPS file format is a new universal format that produces a document that looks exactly the same as it looked originally, regardless of which computer you use to open or print the document. To create an XPS document, you print it to the Microsoft XPS Document Writer from whichever program you used to create the content.

Create the Document

Create or open the document or other itema photo, for examplein the program you normally use, and choose to print the document. If the program doesn't let you choose a printer before printing, set the Microsoft XPS Document Writer as your default printer.

In the dialog box that appears, select Microsoft XPS Document Writer if it isn't already selected, make any other settings you want, and then click Print.

In the Save The File As dialog box that appears, specify where you want the file to be stored.

Enter a name for the file.

Click Save to create the file.

Tip

XPS stands for XML Paper Specification, and XPS documents are usually viewed using Internet Explorer.


Caution

You'll need an XPS Viewer to view XPS documents. An XPS Viewer add-on to Internet Explorer is already installed on computers running Windows Vista, but the Viewer might not be installed on computers using earlier versions of Windows or on other operating systems. If the Viewer isn't installed, you can download and install it from Windows Update.
