Identification

JP2 files begin with bytes 00 00 00 0c 6a 50 20 20 0d 0a 87 0a 00 00 00 14 66 74 79 70 6a 70 32 20.

Note that some Adobe applications (most notably Adobe Photoshop) produce JPX (JPEG 2000 Part 2) images that erroneously use the above byte sequence, which makes them (superficially) indistinguishable from JP2 images.
