XPS Viewer + XPS to PDF
XPS Viewer + XPS to PDF is a document viewing and conversion utility for macOS that specialises in handling Microsoft XPS (XML Paper Specification) files. The app allows users to open and view XPS documents and convert them to PDF format, which is useful for users who occasionally receive XPS files but work primarily with PDF workflows. XPS is a document format Microsoft developed as an alternative to PDF, and while less common on macOS than on Windows, it remains in use in some enterprise and publishing environments.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about this app in available sources, and the bundle ID com.gyj.pdfviewer suggests it may be from an independent developer who is not widely publicised online. To determine whether a native Apple Silicon build exists, contact the developer directly or check their website (if one is available) and ask whether the current version runs natively on Apple Silicon Macs. With Rosetta 2 being removed in macOS 28 (September 2028), it is important to confirm this soon if you rely on the app regularly. As an alternative, you could convert XPS to PDF using web-based converters or tools built into Preview or other PDF editors on macOS, though a native dedicated app would be preferable if you work with XPS files frequently.
