What is a JP2 file?

JP2 is the file extension for JPEG 2000, a newer image compression standard created by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. It offers better compression efficiency and image quality than traditional JPG, supporting lossless compression and transparency.

Despite its technical advantages, JP2 hasn’t replaced JPG due to limited software support and slower performance.

How to open JP2 files

JP2 files can be opened with programs like IrfanView, GIMP (with plugin), and some Adobe tools. Modern web browsers don’t natively support JP2.

To make a JP2 image more accessible, just convert it to PNG or JPG using AnyConv — it's fast and free online.
