Regarding the editing, terminal formats like those are basically 'paper waiting to happen' and not for editing.

XPS is the new name of the failed initiative, formerly called Metro, to create a non-open imitation of PDF which is tied to a specific platform and vendor. Use of documents trapped in XPS format, specifically, is contingent entirely upon the one companies products. In contrast, PDF is fully documented, approved by several standards organizations and fully available in perpetuity for use in open source applications like OpenOffice.org. If something has changed and the XPS format has suddenly become available in perpetuity for open source implementation (requires the whole spec), then please speak up. Otherwise ... Smart users stay away from poor technology like that. It wasn't added to MSO 2007 because it is useful for *you*. It was added to gain gate-keeper status to *your* data. It's like Roach Motel (tm) for your data. So, if you want to keep your print-on-demand documents available in the future, please continue with PDF. Since the specification for PDF is freely available without restriction you do not have to worry that data will be lost in the future as a result of licensing conflicts. I encourage you to take advantage of the ubiquitous and open standard PDF, which OpenOffice.org and many other good applications have full support for.
