About This Tool

XPS to PDF allows you to convert Microsoft’s XML Paper Specification (XPS) files into the much more widely supported PDF format. XPS was originally designed as a "PDF killer" for Windows, but because few non-Windows devices can open it, converting to PDF is often necessary for compatibility and long-term archiving.

This tool uses native parsing to ensure that your text, vector graphics, and document layout are preserved with 100% accuracy. The resulting PDF will be visually identical to the original XPS file, but with the added benefit of being viewable on Mac, iOS, Android, and Linux systems.

Secure Processing: XPS files are often used for "printed" digital records like receipts or internal reports. By processing the conversion locally in your browser, we ensure that these records never leave your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between XPS and OXPS?

XPS is the original format, while OXPS (OpenXPS) is the newer standardized version used in Windows 8 and later. Our tool supports conversion for both formats.

Can I select text in the converted PDF?

Yes! Since we use high-fidelity vector parsing, the text remains searchable and selectable in the resulting PDF document.

Will the file size change?

Generally, the file size remains similar, though PDF compression may sometimes result in a slightly smaller, more shareable file.
