Convert OXPS to RTF

OXPS (Open XML Paper Specification) files are a document format designed to preserve the layout and content of a file across different systems similar to PDF. They are commonly used for sharing documents while maintaining consistent formatting. However, converting OXPS files to RTF (Rich Text Format) can be necessary to edit the document or use it in word processors like Microsoft Word. Since OXPS files are more rigid and RTF files are highly flexible for editing, this conversion opens up new possibilities for modifying text in documents.

Converting an OXPS file to RTF usually involves an intermediary step since direct conversion tools are rare.
First, you can open the OXPS file using a viewer like the Microsoft XPS Viewer or similar software. If the viewer supports this option, you can export the OXPS file as a PDF or use your OS's Print to PDF function. Once in PDF format, tools like Adobe Acrobat or free online converters can extract and save the text as an RTF file. You can always copy and paste texts through the clipboard directly to a text editor. Some dedicated OXPS-to-RTF conversion tools also exist, but they may require specialized software or subscriptions.
