What is a CO_ file?

CO_ files mostly belong to PDF Reader. A *.CO_ file is a partially encoded PDF file. It's likely an artifact of a disrupted or incomplete download or transfer process. The partial encoding suggests that some, but not all, of the PDF data has been written to the file. Attempting to open a *.CO_ file directly in a PDF reader will likely result in errors, as the file is incomplete and doesn't conform to the PDF specification. Repairing or recovering the complete PDF might be possible depending on the cause of the incomplete encoding. If the transfer was interrupted, resuming or restarting the download is the first course of action. If the incomplete encoding is due to software or hardware issues during file creation, specialized PDF recovery tools might be necessary.
