    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.

    Thank you Sharon – I will give that a try and see if it helps :)

    AI 2019 CC (and all past versions going back to CS3 - that I am aware of):

    Here's the bug:

    When I export images in Illustrator via "Export for Screens" or the legacy "Export" - my images ALWAYS come out having 1 extra pixel added to their size.

    The legacy "Save for Web" is the only export option that doesn't do this, however, there's no way to save multiple images for web - and I'm usually creating a lot of web banners that need to be exported in bulk (usually in a time crunch).

    For example, my developers need the dimensions of my image files to be exactly 300x600, and when I export all of my banner ads in Illustrator, they inevitably without fail, will save them as 300x601.

    When I downloaded AI 2019 CC, I was very hopeful that this would be fixed, but to my disappointment it is still an issue. I know that this has been a bug for many years and I would love to see this get fixed so that I can go back to creating my web banners on Illustrator without the fear that they'll save at the wrong size.
