This is the first step to get the data from xps into excel file. I have a friend which he open XPS in Acrobat first and use Export as Excel Sheet and the file result from his pc excel file and arabic words display right without ? symbol but in my pc it will replace a spicific words with ? symbol not sure why. After this covertion i used a macro in order to get the correct info in final result.
