Re: xps.viewer
Kyle Regrettably this requires Office 2004 or later to be installed. I don't have Office installed as I use Open Office 3.1. Microsoft have bee touting xps. as a alternative to pdf but I cannot see much value if one has to have MS Office to use it!

Re: xps.viewer
Ronni Thanks, I have actually looked at this but considered it too expensive for the number of xps files I get. It is about $125 and considering the MS viewer for windows is free it seems pricey Regards Barry On 20/07/2009, at 3:45 PM, Ronda Brown wrote: On 20/07/2009, at 3:31 PM, Barry Sexstone wrote: Does anyone know of a reasonable xps. viewer?
