This happens because Internet Explorer / the XPS Viewer is downloading the document in the background (which seems to take a little while).

leaving it in an IE window and continuing work, it eventually downloaded.
was able to save a copy to look at later.

would have been nice to see some kind of progress indicator to let a person know it was working.

Yes Kristan , but why it downloads in the background, because IE is the viewer?
WHen i clicked on the download button for downloading (XPS format), i also
got confused as nothing seems to happen , but after looking at the network
icon in system tray, i could see the activity & make it its doing it in the
background. Later i have to copy the file from Internet temp. file.
While when tried from other browser, it opened a window asking to save the
file.

Is this because IE is the XPS document reader , so it dnlds in background?
