    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.

    I have had luck with Sharon Dean's method! Make sure your artboards are aligned to the pixel. I usually just copy and paste art boards over and over because it's my process, but whenever I want to export them, I make sure where they are in the document isn't on a decimal pixel.

    I have the same issues! I will probably be more aware of where I place my artboards, but it's so annoying. I should be able to copy as many artboards as I want and get the same size. I am at the point where I send all of my .ai files to another designer to export out because it's so tedious for me to shave off 1 pixel in photoshop.
