Convert XPS to PDF Free

Convert XPS to PDF Free is a straightforward application you can use to create PDF documents from XPS file type. This represents Microsoft's alternative format to PDF, which was introduced in Windows Vista but didn't really catch on.
Nevertheless, the XPS file extension is still used in present, so you might be interested in creating PDFs, which are supported by a wide range of applications than XPS.

Requires .NET Framework to work

The installation operation takes little time to finish and the only notable aspect about it is that .NET Framework must exist on your PC to be able to run this tool, since it was developed using Microsoft's software framework.
As far as the interface is concerned, the main app window is clean and intuitive. Only a handful of buttons are available in the toolbar. Batch processing is featured, meaning that you can convert multiple files at the same time.

Create multiple PDFs at the same time

You can add XPS objects using the built-in file browser, but only one file can be added at a time (multi-selection isn't possible). Otherwise, you can indicate a folder to automatically add all containing XPS files while excluding any unsupported items.
In the task list, you can check out the full path and size of each file. It's important to mention that only selected XPS items will be processed by the application when clicking the Convert button, so make sure to tick their boxes in the Check column. If you change your mind about any file, you can either leave it unchecked or remove it from the task list.

Doesn't have rich features but it's fast and intuitive

The new PDF files are automatically created in the same directory as the source files and receive the same names. Unfortunately, Convert XPS to PDF Free doesn't implement options for changing the output directory and file name, let alone more options, such as previewing the PDF or configuring PDF settings.
Nevertheless, this software application offers a speedy and simple solution for turning Microsoft XPS files into the more popular PDF format, and it can be handled with ease by anyone. It preserved the text and graphical format in our tests. Those interested in more comprehensive features should resort to other tools, though.
