Great question, Patrick. Although OpenXPS (formally XPS) is an ECMA-based standard, its not been utilized nearly enough. At least visibly. OpenXPS is being utilized in many areas throughout the world in various capacities. However, there are other formats that are still ubiquitous across the planet. It will take time for the OpenXPS to gain some ground as an open standard. That still doesn't explain why we, at Microsoft, aren't providing documents in the OpenXPS format. That's certainly an issue I will raise internally.
