PDFTron's PDF to XPS Converter is an efficient, stand-alone command-line application for converting and publishing PDF files as print and web-ready XPS (XML Paper Specification) documents.

PDF2XPS enables high-quality conversion from PDF to XPS that maintains the original document quality and preserves hyperlinks, colors and fonts. The resulting self-contained and compact XPS files can be distributed, viewed, edited, stored, printed, and published.

Like other PDFTron products, PDF2XPS does not rely on any other third-party software.

PDFTron PDF2XPS is also available as a software component for embedding into third-party applications.

What is XPS?

"XPS" stands for "XML Paper Specification" and is a new document format as well as the native print spooler format in Microsoft's Windows Vista™. The XPS document format consists of XML markup that defines the layout of a document and the visual appearance of each page along with rendering rules for distributing, archiving, rendering, processing and printing the documents. Just like PDF, the XPS document format enables users to view, print, and archive any type of documents without the original program that created them and without loss of fidelity.

Why PDF2XPS?

With the emergence of the new document format XPS, interoperability between XPS and other document formats, predominantly a document format as widely accepted as PDF, will be crucial to many business workflows and applications.

PDFTron is leading the way in developing the next generation of our core technology that will enable users to take advantage of both PDF and XPS document formats in their solutions.
