You can do it yourself, without any tools. Please see this discussion and the basic code sample in the answer:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/352540/how-to-create-an-xps-document[^].

[EDIT]

In reply to follow-up discussion:

You should understand that XPS is a fixed-layout document format. Please see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_XML_Paper_Specification[^].

thanks SA,
you are correct.but my problem is that only Document.Table is more flexible
in flow document .but it does not support binding like we have in grid/Listview.
if we are using grid in flow document say the grid has 100 row these rows will
only fit with the height of grid with scroll option.so i need a control that
fulfills data-binding,repeated column headers if there is overflow to another-page.
can u please go through my project on https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=96FB4F1E3660C28B&id=96FB4F1E3660C28B!103

This is not what you asked in first place. Could that be a reason for vote of 1?

Please see my updated answer, after [EDIT]. What data binding can you expect in a document. A document is a document; even a fluid-layout document is fixed structurally and carries fixed data.

thanks SA
"fluid-layout document is fixed structurally and carries fixed data".??
then why .net provide flow document this is just opposite of what u said right?

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 14-Mar-12 12:45pm

One does not contradict to another. Flow documents are important, but XPS ones are only fixed. Again, please see this Wikipedia article.

Sorry, I did not get you. Yes. What I mean is: fixed documents are fixed; like those on paper. One of them is XPS.
Fluid-layout documents still are fluid (WPF flow documents), but they are fluid in layout; the content is fixed. Structurally, logically.

Did I make it clear now?

OK, if you don't want to accept the answer, don't; but you could ask your questions if something is still not clear.
