How to match the artboard sizes in multiple apps like XD, Photoshop and Illustrator?

I am trying to design multiple components in multiple apps, and combine them in XD. To do this I need to match the sizes of objects relative to the artboard canvas size.

 

However, I'm having a problem matching sizes, as my 1920 px by 1080 px is absolutely huge in XD, taking up most of my monitor at 100%zoom, but the same size in Photoshop and Illustrator seems much smaller by comparison, even at 100% zoom. Why would these be different? Which one is accurate? This should be an easy/ basic issue, and yet I'm very confused. Could it have to do with the pixels per inch (PPI)?

Hi SloMotn,

 

We are sorry for the delay in response. Would you mind confirming if you have checked on export when it’s 100%, and it’ll translate 1 virtual point = 1 px? 

 

We'll try our best to help.

 

Thanks,

Harshika
