Almost 80 % of the people started using windows 7 or Windows 8 Operating System(OS) and If you are one among them You might have noticed the default printing format extension is .XPS in windows 7 and .OXPS in Windows 8. The XPS extension is not new to us,  it was introduced approximately 7 years back along with the Windows Vista OS and Microsoft mentioned it as PDF killer but Windows Vista itself became a huge fail so xps formats failed to reach among the major audience.Microsoft added them again in Windows 7 unlike before with much support and the XPS extension is changed to OXPS with the introduction of Windows 8 OS.

So by default if you use print function to save or print documents it will be in xps extension in windows 7 and oxps in windows 8. It is not recognized as much it should be like PDF among people.It is a pain if you don’t have printer in your home and rely on printing shops to take print out because if they use MAC or Windows Xp or any other Operating system this XPS and OXPS format will not be recognized like PDF and hence print out cannot be taken.If you have Internet connection in your Home you can convert this XPS/OXPS to Pdf format through online converting sites like Free PDF converter, XPS to PDF, OXPS to PDF. But If you don’t have regular Internet connection, the following free Software will help you to Convert XPS/OXPS to PDF easily.

    Another option is to use an online converter like http://www.convertxps.com (a project of mine). Currently this one does not support OpenXPS (.oxps) files, but I am working on a solution.
