TJ stood for "Type Justifier." TJ-2 ran on a Digital PDP-1 computer with 4096 eighteen-bit words of core memory with a 5 microsecond cycle time; in modern terms, 9K of RAM and a 200 KHz (kilohertz, not megahertz) clock.

It was based on the earlier programs JUSTIFY and TJ-1 by Pete Samson, and succeeded by TYPSET and RUNOFF.
