Varieties of PJP Files


Chief PJP Description

.PJP
Extension:.pjp
Type:JPEG Image

PJP is the most common file extension used for a lossy graphics file. It is one and the same and used interchangeably with JPEG. PJP stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group which created the standard. Most images and graphics found online are mostly in the PJP format because the lossy compression algorithm of the file extension greatly reduces the file sizes of images and thereby contribute to a faster loading time. However, it can also significantly reduce the quality of the image file. PJP files have 2 sub-formats, the JPG/Exif which is mainly associated with digital cameras and JPG/JFIF, mainly used online.

Troubleshooting Problems Opening PJP Files


Troubles Opening PJP Files

Adobe Illustrator CC Removed

Double-clicking your PJP file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open PJP File". Generally, this is experienced in %%os%% because Adobe Illustrator CC isn't installed on your PC. The OS won't know what to do with your PJP file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.


Tip: If you know of another program that can open your PJP file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.


Obsolete Version of Adobe Illustrator CC

Your JPEG Image file is incompatible with Adobe Illustrator CC because you might have the wrong version installed. Visit the Adobe Systems Incorporated website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Adobe Illustrator CC. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.


Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the PJP file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.


Summary: Not having the right Adobe Illustrator CC version on your computer can cause problems opening PJP files.


More Causes of Problems Opening PJPs

Even with the correct version of Adobe Illustrator CC installed, you can still experience difficulties opening PJPs. If you're still experiencing problems opening PJP files, there could be other computer problems. These other problems include (listed in order from most to least common):

  • Windows Registry PJP file paths that are incorrect
  • Deletion of the PJP file description from the Registry by mistake
  • Invalid installation of a PJP-associated program (eg. Adobe Illustrator CC)
  • File corruption affecting your PJP file
  • Malware-tainted PJP file can't be opened
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your PJP file are corrupt or out-of-date
  • Windows cannot load your JPEG Image file due to insufficient resources (eg. RAM)
