P: Export isn't resizing exactly to specified long edge

Bug report submitted by Rob Cole on behalf of Soulflare007, who was having problems with login/AdobeID...Lightroom 5's export isn't resizing exactly to specified long edge. For example, when I restrict long edge to 1920, the exported files are 1919. Same with 1024, I get 1023px files instead. If I export from Adobe Bridge, then the long edges are calculated correctly. This problem didn't happen with LR4. Files being exported were DNG and TIF.More info here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/54380...

    No, I don't adjust to 900 by cropping, I just made an adjustment approx from 1900 to 1950 and also some on the other side. I don't want to install other plugins, LR should fix this problem. This is not a wish, this a bug which should be not to hard to fix... (IF export is not equal .......)

    Plugin btw looks very nice, so thumbs up for offering a solution...

    Bummer. also consider trying 900.1 ...

    I mean perhaps it's just as easy to adjust crop - did you say the photos are cropped to 900 (or 899) too?

    Dunno if xmp-crop plugin would be worthwhile for you or not - it supports precision cropping:

    Thanx for the suggestion. 900,4 gave 901 on all testphoto's (900 and 899 size) 🙂 If I just go into develop and adjust the crop a little, it then exports correctly with 900 pix. It's a little bit time consuming, I have to do now a manually check on the export size before uploading ...

    As work-around, consider editing your export preset (.lrtemplate file) and bump the max-height by a fraction of a pixel until it exports at the correct dimension (900), for example:

    size_maxHeight = 900.4,

    Not sure if you need to restart Lr for new setting to take.

    Maybe just selecting a different preset, then back is enough - I don't remember.

    If it exports at 901, you went too far ;-}

    LR5.4 has still the same problem. Some websites (e.g. www.pentaxphotogallery.com) demand exact 900pix on the long edge...

    It only happens in 1 about 1 of 50 photo's ONE pixel is missing...

    This is a well-known and easily-reproducible bug - I doubt Adobe needs additional information at this point.

    And, to paraphrase Eric Chan: Lr5.4 should be out soon.

    I was able to find a workaround by removing the "Do not enlarge"-option.
    It looks like LR5.3 handles some JPG panos wrong, when exporting them with the "Do not enlarge" enabled.

    Are you intrested in a copy of my files that failed to export correct?

    I try to export 8 images from LR5.3
    Some 5184x3456 pixel RAW-files (EOS 7D)
    Some panorama JPGs created with the iPhone.
    The panos are like: 2380x5040 (vertical), 3326x4988 (vertical) and 8192x2366 (horizontal).

    Here are my resaults:

    Worth noting: the original problem was fixed @10908910.2. Unfortunately, a new (similar) bug crept into v5.3.

    So, one work-around is to fall back to v5.2.

    Other work-arounds:
    * Uncheck "Don't Enlarge" (if really not necessary).
    * Export in 2 lots: one with resizing and one without.
    * Use Exportant.
