Hello every1 Ive windows XP pro SP3 fully updated. Last night I had to open an XPS file and well its not working. I've downloaded this ' XPSEP XP and Server 2003 32 bit ' but. The Microsoft XML Paper Specification Essentials Pack, Version 1.0 (XPS Essentials Pack) contains components that enable you to view, generate and index XPS Documents.With the XPS Essentials Pack you can quickly begin reading and generating XPS Documents.
-->The Microsoft XPS Document Writer (MXDW) is a print-to-file driver that enables a Windows application to create XML Paper Specification (XPS) document files on versions of Windows starting with Windows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2). Using the MXDW makes it possible for a Windows application to save its content as an XPS document without changing any of the application's program code.
When to Use
As a user, you would select the MXDW when you want to create an XPS document from a Windows application that does not have the option to save its content as an XPS document.
As an application developer, you would recommend the MXDW to users who want to create XPS documents when your application does not offer the option to save as an XPS document. For more information on the XML Paper Specification and XPS documents, see XML Paper Specification and XPS Specification and License Downloads.
The MXDW is installed automatically on Windows Vista and later versions of Windows and can be downloaded and installed on Windows XP with SP2 and Windows Server 2003.
Installation
On Windows Vista and later versions of Windows, the MXDW is installed automatically when the operating system is installed.
Windows XP with SP2 and Windows Server 2003: Download and install either .Net Framework 3.0 or the XPS Essential Pack from the Microsoft Download Center.
How to Use
When installed, the MXDW appears as an available print queue in the Print dialog box presented by an application. When the MXDW is selected as the printer, the user is prompted for the file name to create as the XPS Document that captures the print output of the application.
The following image shows the MXDW being selected as the printer in the Windows Vista common print dialog box.
Application developers can customize the output of MXDW using the MXDW configuration settings.
