I have extracted what i thought was a jpeg file from a resource file. The piece of code I extracted begins with jpeg header. however, when I open the file in ps i get a "JPEG marker segment length is too short" error. I was hoping someone could look at the actual file in text and tell me where it should end:

See if you can open the file in a web browser – if you can re-save it from there and it should then open in Photoshop

no i can’t. i have to edit the file at some point i think (cut off some portion of the end), but i can’t figure out where….

Assuming it is an RGB JPEG, if it won’t open in a browser it is probably corrupted beyond recovery.

If it is a CMYK JPEG, it would be worth trying to open it in another editor/viewer such as Irfanview:

Again, if it will open, re-saving may allow you to open it in Photoshop
