XPS Documents
XML Paper Speci cation (XPS) documents are xed-format documents that you can share and archive
in a high-quality, ef cient format. XPS documents can be opened without having the original program
in which the document was created, so you can easily share your work. You can preview XPS docu-
ments within the Windows Explorer or Microsoft Of ce Outlook® messaging and collaboration client
preview panes.
With Windows 7, it’s easy to create XPS documents using the Microsoft XPS Document Writer. Available
from any program that you can print from, just select the XPS Document Writer rather than a physical
printer from the print dialogue and follow the prompts to create your document. Of ce 2007 users
can also use the Save as XPS function from the Save As menu to create XPS documents from Of ce
2007 applications.
Windows 7 also provides a richer viewing experience with the XPS Viewer. The improved experience
features a more streamlined user interface, easier ways to navigate through the document, and relevancy-
ranked XPS searches. You can even display pages as thumbnails to get an interactive view of several
pages at once, which is great for visually searching through long documents. Finally, you can use the XPS
Viewer to digitally sign XPS documents and, if your company uses Windows Rights Management Services,
control who can open an XPS
document and what they can
do with it.
