What is a JFIF file?

JFIF stands for JPEG File Interchange Format. It’s a simplified version of the JPEG standard that defines how JPEG data should be stored in a file. It includes metadata like pixel density and aspect ratio.

JFIF ensures consistent display of JPEG images across platforms and is often used under the .jpg or .jpeg extension.

How to open JFIF files

JFIF files can be opened with any image viewer that supports JPEG, including Windows Photos, macOS Preview, and web browsers. You can also rename the extension to .jpg if needed.

🎯 Did You Know?

A format born out of confusion
JFIF was created in the early 1990s to fix inconsistencies in how different programs handled JPEG files — because the original JPEG spec didn’t define how to store them in actual files. Without JFIF, JPEGs might have never worked the same across platforms.
