XML Paper Specification

Hi there! So, an XML Paper Specification (XPS) is a way of representing digital documents, like a book or a piece of paper, that can be viewed on a computer or printed out on paper.

Think of it like playing with toy building blocks. Each block is a piece of information, like the text in a document or an image in a picture. XPS takes all of these blocks and organizes them in a specific way so that they can be read on a computer or print out on paper in the same way they were intended to be read.

In simple terms, XPS is a way of putting together a digital document like a puzzle, so it can be read just like a real book or paper without anything getting mixed up or lost.
