About XPS documents
XPS stands for XML Paper Specification. It is a fixed-layout document format designed by Microsoft
Inc. to preserve document fidelity. XPS files - just like PDF files - are mostly used for storage
purposes. Note that the content of XPS files cannot be edited (easily).
To save documents as XPS documents:
• Click Other in the Output group.
• Select the desired XPS type from the drop-down list:
• XPS Image-Text. This file type is most commonly used. It contains two layers: the recognized
text, and the original image on top of the text. This way, you have both access to the
recognized text and you still see the original image.
Note: since the image covers the text, any recognition mistakes will not be visible.
• XPS Image. When you select this file type, Readiris doesn't execute the text recognition on
your document. Your XPS file will not be text-searchable, it only contains the image of your
original document.
• XPS Text (Readiris Corporate only). This file type contains the recognized text, but does not
contain the original image of your document. Any images in the original document are
included as graphics in the XPS file.
• XPS Text-Image (Readiris Corporate only). This file type is the opposite of XPS Image-Text. It
contains the original image in the background, and the recognized text on top of the image.
Note: any recognition mistakes will be visible in this format.
