在网上搜到了一篇介绍，有一个工具叫“GhostPDL”，可以将XPS格式的文件转为PDF格式。

不过，这个教程讲解的，是从源代码开始编译的。在GhostPDL的网站上，也的确只有源代码，因此我把这个代码编译了一下，发上来给大家使用。
gxps.exe -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=test.pdf -dNOPAUSE test.xps
其中，test.pdf是希望转成的PDF文件名，test.xps，是原始的XPS文件。
本软件从GhostPDL 1.53版本编译而得。绿色软件，就一个exe，免安装。
XPS格式介绍：XPS是微软提供的，与PDF相竞争的一种文件格式，在安装Office之后，会自动的增加一个虚拟打印机，用户可以将各种文件直接打印为XPS格式。

How to Clean a Coffee Maker
Drip filter coffee makers need to be cleaned monthly to remove hard water deposits (scale), leftover coffee oils that become rancid, and other impurities. Washing the pot just isn't going to cut it: what about the internal components? Follow these steps to clean your coffee maker through and through and you'll taste the difference.
Steps
1.
Make a mixture of 1 part white vinegar to 2 parts water-- enough to fill the pot. For a stronger solution (which might be necessary if this is the first time you've cleaned your coffee maker since you got it three years ago) make a mixture that is half vinegar and half water instead.
Here are some alternative mixtures:
* a pot's worth of water and two denture tablets. Remember to dissolve the tablets in a separate container of water and not the coffee maker water reservoir. Undissolved tablets can make the rinsing process lengthy.
* dissolve 1 oz of citric acid in 4 cups of hot water, then add 4 cups of cold water to the mixture.
* 1 part baking soda to 4 parts of warm water
* store-bought coffee maker cleaners
* straight bleach(for the glass carafe ONLY)will instantly dissolve baked-on coffee. [NEVER mix bleach and vinegar or any acid; the fumes are poisonous]
2. Put a filter in your coffee maker, as usual.
3.
Pour the mixture into the coffee maker where you would normally add water.
4. Turn the coffee maker on and let the mixture run completely through.
5.
Discard the filter and mixture.
6. Let the coffee maker sit and cool for 15 minutes while it's off.
7.
Rinse the coffee pot.
8. Repeat all of the above twice, but this time with plain cold water. This will make sure all of the vinegar and water solution is completely gone. If short on time, smell the coffee pot and maker after the first rinse. If there is no smell of vinegar left, you can skip the second rinse.
