FJSW file format:

If you know the file format, you can also find out how to open or edit the file. The first characters in a file identify the file format, for example, HTML files start with the bytes <html>. File extension, signature and file format must match; otherwise errors will occur when the file is opened. If there are problems opening a file, you must first determine the file format used. Our evaluation of the FJSW files is as follows:

The FJSW extension is quite commonly used. The file itself is primarily used by a single program. However, the following two file formats are common:

80% of all FJSW files are based on the popular XML file format. The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a simple text-based format for representing structured information: documents, webpages, data, configuration, books, transactions, invoices, and much more. XML defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. The content consists of readable text data, which can be read using a text editor. The file size is in the range of 6 KB to 19 KB. The file type was developed 10 years ago and is still in use today. The following keywords are characteristic: Copyright (c) 2005 by Hermitech Laboratory. All Rights Reserved, Formulator Jigsaw Edition 2005, http://www.hermitech.ic.zt.ua and This file contains a summary information about the puzzle doc. Such files sometimes refer to operations, fractions, tarsia, indices, jigsaw, level, decimals and expanding.
20% of all FJSW files store the data in the UTF-16 (LE) file format. UTF-16 (LE) is an character encoding system for Unicode. UTF-16 files can be viewed in any modern text editor. These files start with the two bytes FF FE, the so called byte order mark (BOM). The content consists of illegible binary data, which can only be read and interpreted by the associated programs. The files are on average 18 KB in size and range from 10 KB to 29 KB. Several words can almost always be found in the files, e.g. Copyright (c) 2005-2009 by Hermitech Laboratory. All Rights Reserved, Formulator Tarsia and http. These files are often associated with equations, negatives, compound, metric, activity, numbers, order, recap and area.
