As this community is Acrobat Answers we'll go with you having either Adobe Reader or Acrobat. In either case these applications only 'open' PDF. So, neither is going to 'open' a JPG or any other file format. If you have Acrobat (must purchase) you can convert JPG files to PDF. Acrobat can then open the PDF. Adobe Reader cannot convert anything to PDF. Note that a graphic icon next to a file is a nice to have but has absolutely no impact on what opens a file type.
