If the position of an artboard is not on a whole number, "Export Via Screens" and other export options will increase the resolutuion of the export by 1-2 pixels.
This is a long-understood issue by the community, but I see no listing of it as a bug or "known issue" by Adobe. I recieved little support from my previous post on the matter.
To recreate the issue, duplicate an Artboard and move it. Export the artboard. The resolution will not match.
There is no circumstance where this should be an expected output from the software. It's a bug and should be treated as such by Adobe.

I don't share that attitude 🙂

"Oh to live in a fantasy utopia where anytime I create an artboard I don't have to delete the decimal points at the end"
How about not typing them in?
I'm still preplexed about how you create an artboard, but have no control of the integers.

On Mac, Alt + Click and Drag an existing artboard to duplicate. The original post says "To recreate the issue, duplicate an Artboard and move it." A typical file of mine has 6-10 artboards with unique sizes. I'm aware of possible (slow) workarounds, such as typing it all out with the Artboard tool, but this post is about the difference in dimensions between the artboard and final export.
Get ready! An upgraded Adobe Community experience is coming in January.
