 some versions of MS Office save files in this format, and that I would
 want to install this library and set of utilities to allow people on
 machines I administer to view them.

 Ideally I wouldn't have had to guess.  Could you clarify the package
 description, so the long description includes all the information
 needed to decide whether to install the package?  Devref tells me[1]

Sorry for the delay, I've just updated the description about xps.
I appreciate your help!
