The XPS file format created by Microsoft is an alternative format to the more popular PDF. It can include text content, graphics, and digital signatures. Mac OS X doesn't provide you with a default application for opening and reading this type of document. For this reason, programs like XPS-Reader were created.
By working with this utility, you can import XPS files from your local directories, go through their text contents, and add bookmarks if necessary. What's more, you can extract images from the input documents and save them as PNG, JPG, TIFF, and others.
Another important advantage is that you can use this program to convert XPS files to PDF format. The application preserves the layout of the input documents and offers you the results you require within moments.
I also like the fact that you can print XPS files directly from the program's main window. The app also features many reading options which can be found on its main toolbar.
With that being said, XPS-Reader proves to be a useful addition to your collection of Mac apps if you ever need to go through the contents of XPS documents on your computer.
