XPS to Images Converter Portable

XPS to Images Converter Portable is a tiny software program that turns XPS files into images with the PNG, JPEG, TIFF, BMP and GIF format. It includes a few advanced options that should please experienced users.

Since installation is not a prerequisite, you can drop the program files to any location on the hard disk and just click the EXE to run.

There is also the possibility of saving XPS to Images Converter to a USB flash disk or similar storage unit, in order to run it on any PC with minimum effort, as long as it has .NET Framework installed.

What's more, the tool does not create new entries in the Windows registry or Start menu, leaving the HDD clean after removal.

The interface is represented by a regular window with a neatly organized structure. It is not particularly attractive, though. Once the XPS item, saving location and output format are pointed out, you can proceed with the conversion applying default settings.

Otherwise, it is possible to establish a post-task action (e.g. exit, shutdown, reboot, log off). When it comes to image tweaks, you can set a new size, DPI and prefix to file name, index the first page, select the number of CPU cores to use, ask XPS to Images Converter to ignore existing pictures and conversion errors, as well as run a test instead of going through with the image encoding.

Command lines are available. As far as program preferences are concerned, you can set XPS to Images Converter to prompt for confirmation concerning deletion, exit and conversion canceling, check for updates on a regular basis, automatically complete file names and save settings, and so on.

The app does not put a strain on computer performance, as it uses low CPU and RAM. It takes reasonable time to convert pictures and executes a command rapidly. No issues were encountered in our testing, since the tool did not hang, crash or pop up error dialogs. However, the commands are likely difficult to figure out by casual users. On the other hand, help documentation is included.
