    Hmm... I’d say it doesn’t exactly 'helps', but 'hides' the problem.
    So if you really wish for it to be addressed and prevent from happening with other users — kindly provide a test file, a screenshot, and the specs for you OS and GPU used — the team would need these to investigate the issue.

    Does not happen for me, it seems... Perhaps it’s file or machine specific?
    Please provide a test file and record a short video that demonstrates the steps.

    Simón, that is doable today, also in a not best possible manner, through image maps (a part of the existing slice system), via Attributes panel.
    Please refer to this help article for details: https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/slices-image-maps.html

    At some point a bug prevented these areas from being exported into PDFs, now fixed:
    http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/40418827

    But we still don’t have true text hyperlinks, like this request states:
    http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/47303807

    Does using Attributes solve the problem for you? Please reply.

    Recently the team 'fixed' an ancient bug with dropping hyperlinks in PDF — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/40418827. The solution is nowhere final, done in the most basic way possible, merely a bug fixed, like if no-one in the team did try to make it useful at the level of today's standards.
    — A partial text selection can't be made into a hyperlink.
    — No widgets are given on the canvas to see if an object has a hyperlink assigned or not, and to open the link directly from the canvas (with or without a modifier).
    — Attributes gives no way to jump to a previous/next hyperlink in the document.
    — The 'browser' button uses the IE browser, not the assigned one at the OS level.
    — If I cover an object which has a hyperlink assigned, with another object that has another hyperlink, the area they shared together is overtaken by the one which is below, and not according to their z-order (see the GIF — the intersection area should display 'orange', not 'green'!)
    — 'Polygon' image map option does not work, the object gets a rectangle area still. The sacred knowledge about creating polygonal image maps in Ai is long lost, and the only mention the official manual has about it is here (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/slices-image-maps.html) — but it never actually tells how to create these. Surely not via rectangular-only slices. It should just happen automatically, and it does not.
    — What about automation? To have the links to be auto-tagged, like this solution for InD does (https://www.id-extras.com/products/hyperlinkpro/)?
    — What about auto styling, like InD provides?
    — Will we be able to fine tune the look of the Character’s 'Underline' option? Nobody places lines this close to text anymore on web.

    So yes, this should be made BETTER.

    It is possible to workaround this, using Attributes panel: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/illustrator/using/whats-new/2023-5.html#pdf-hyperlinks
    But obviously this method is hardly suited for text, and require making a fake dummy areas above the text.
    So sure — voted.

    The method Dan described below is the only way currently to create text hyperlinks directly in Ai.
    And this method is a torture, let’s admit it. I can hardly call this request 'Completed' — the team just merely fixed a bug with the ancient tech.
    There is another request here — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/47303807 — for an ability to make NORMAL hyperlinked text, in the modern way, the way almost any editor can do. Please come and upvote it.

    And it’s now in Beta 28.1.0.100 and you can try it and see if it works as expected. This really feels like a fixed bug, something we all should have had from the day inside/outside strokes got introduced.

    Please, give it a go and comment back!

    This issue is probably happening because the artboard dimensions are not appropriate for raster export (i.e. are in decimals).
    If you make x and y values as the whole numbers in the transform panel (not in decimal), then the extra pixels will not be added to the exported image.

    That is the workaround, and it’s reported that it’s not always the case.

    At the same time — Ai knows the size of artboards to be exported and yet it does not deliver the set sizes, which is not fair. The team is going to rethink the algorithm.

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) commented  · 

    Ruud, instead of using the final sizes of the artboards specified, Illustrator calculates these based on their coordinates on the global document grid.

    if you pick the Artboard tool and check the X/Y values in the Control or Properties panel, you'll see that the artboard is not placed exactly one the grid — like the attached coordianates_fractions.png shows.
    If you change them to be integer, like the second image shows, this file gets exported as 120005 × 9005.

    This is a known problem, reported here: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/30992416
    Would you mind me merging your report with this one?

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) commented  · 

    Strange... Would you mind sharing the copy of the file here, please? Remove everything, but keep the layout of artboards.
    I am testing this and can’t reproduce, so perhaps it’s file-specific. Needs a close look.

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) commented  · 

    Can you check the coordinates of the artboards, please? Are these integer numbers, without any fraction?

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    AdminEgor Chistyakov (Admin, Adobe Illustrator) commented  · 

    Do not worry. I just wanted to make sure this is the same popular problem reported earlier — it is.
    The main reason this happens — fractional coordinates the artboard has. Once you reset rulers, this should get exported fine (although some report it does not help).

    This explains it, but doesn’t excuse though... and it should be fixed eventually.
    As I said before in the comments to this report, Ai knows the final size a user wants, and it should stick to it.

    This is rubbish. I've been fighting with extra pixels for years. It got better, but these still happen occasionally.
    Izabela, can you please share the file which results this (especially 8px!)?
    The content is not that important, I believe, just artboards.

    Put it here in the comments or send it over to sharewithai@adobe.com if you don’t want to do it publicly (then please state the link to this report for better tracking — https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/45798424)

    And please provide the exact steps you are performing: which export method, which settings, etc. Maybe record a video even, or a GIF — this would help developers to jump to this sooner.
    Thanks!

    It might relate to a known problem when artboards’ coordinates have fractional values.
    Try to position them exactly on grid, with integer coordinates and check if the problem stays.

    Kaja, make sure that your artboard’s coordinates (X, Y) are integer.

    Rachael, can you please show the way the Appearance panel look when you select this object?
    How exactly do you assign the new color stroke? With the Color or Swatches panels, or using the Eyedropper tool? If with the tool — can you pick the tool and hit Enter to open the Tool Options dialog — does it have one or both Appearance options checked there?

    Kevin, I get what you mean.
    To be fair, layers in Ai DO support tags, but there is no native UI to expose them and offer this amount of control.

    There is a related and less detailed general request to have Layer Comps: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/32923834

    Two existing external solutions were mentioned in the comments there:
    1. CADlayers panel, offered by CADtools plugins suite, with layers groups it provides: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYdlU1Kvpss
    2. AG Layer Comps panel, made by Astute Graphics, which is very similar to the one Photoshop has, and works with top-level layers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsZDFRDbbf8

    Both are handy, but none supports REGEX search. I believe these two vendors are more responsible than the Adobe machine, so perhaps you can ask them to develop this part.

    Anyway, thanks for the request made! It’d be somewhat niche, but extremely powerful for users who ahve to deal with myriad of layers.
    Voted!

    Ai team has been making some changes to SVG exporting pipeline.
    Please help them to figure out the problem an answer these questions below.
    Can you export these using a previous build or a Beta version (it can be installed from you CCD client)?
    Can you export an SVG using Export Aa / Save As methods?
    Can you reproduce this behavior with a brand new file?
    Does it make a difference if you try to export these into a different folder and a different disk drive?
    Can you share a screenshot of the setting you use to export assets?

    Agape, do you know how InDesign’s Links panel look?
    It allows to display columns to show the dimensions and file size of each asset.
    Illustrator can’t display such columns in the panel, but it allows to sort linked assets by size.
    Will the way InDesign does it suffice?

    OK, than it’s something super weird.
    Just in case — the angles set in Preferences >Smart Guides are sane as well, correct? Even though these don’t and shouldn’t influence this...

    Let’s try to figure this out then.
    Does it happen with any artwork, or only with selections that have live shapes in them?
    Can you share a test file with this small sign, rotated and unrotated?

    Verónica, this choice can be overridden with an option in the Save/Export dialog, like the attached image shows. Can you check the one you have there, please?

    Also, the 'Preserve Illustrator Editing' being checked in the Save As is also important — it shouldn’t affect the AI side of the file, but it will affect the SVG. Do you have it enabled?
