Open XPS file with Acrobat by command line or another way

I'd like to open XPS file by command line or other ways in .net framework apps VB/C#.

I'm wondering if I can open XPS file by command line because in file "Explore" we can simply open XPS file by "open with..." or context menu.

But I could not find way to do that.

I'd appreciate it in advance.

Adobe Acrobat does not support opening of XPS files. It does support creating a new PDF file from an XPS file, although that function is not supported via command line.

Thank you, Dov! I made up my mind to struggle with Acrobat SDK.
