I don't know Crystal Reports, but XPS is basically a printer driver that creates a document similar to a PDF file. You need to add all the layout and template fields manually. For information on creating XPS documents see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/print-to-xps-document-writer#1TC=windows-7[^].
