A lot of .pdf generators (pdf995 being the best-known, I think) work like this: you "print" to them, and a PDF file results. ("XPS" suggests it might be something to do with Postscript.) Try printing using them; if it prompts for a filename, see what sort of file they produce, and then try opening it. -- J. P. Gilliver.

Nothing to do with winxp, they are printer drivers installed when you installed MS Office. Only you know if you need them, or will use them, uninstalling wont give you anything extra "PVR" <peterv666(a)roadrunner.com> wrote in message news:OSyAYY8tKHA.6124(a)TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > These appear in Printers and Faxes.
