The jif file extension is associated with JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF), which cuts down some features to maximize the simplify of the format.
The jif files are very rare, JFIF format is more common. Sometimes jif is also a typo for GIF format.
Graphic viewers and programs that can open or view JPG format will be able to open the .jif files.
Converters that are able to convert the JPG file format should be able to convert also the .jif files with no trouble. You may need to rename the file extension to JPG though.
