Hi

I have an object whose shadow strays outside the artboard, but I'm
interested in exporting to jpg only what is inside the artboard. As
it is, I have to manually crop the exported jpg using paint shop.

I tried drawing a slice, but I don't see a way of just exporting the
slice.

sorry for the newbie question. thanks in advance.

Hello Everyone

If you want to export Only artboard area in illustrator CC.

Go to Export> Export As >Check  "Use Artboards".

And choose  desired formate. And then Click On Export.

I also had the same problem, and despite all the solutions here it didn't help me - export for web made the image fuzzy.

 

I found the solution - check "export for screens" and if "include bleed" is checked, "export as" will also include bleed!

 

uncheck include bleed in export for screens, then "export as" will also not include bleed.

This doesn't help at all mate, the question was how do you export what's only withing the bounds of the artboard - NOT how to export a specific artboard. ANy way we can mark this answer as incorrect?

The answer is correct: Use Artboards if you want to export the contents as an image.

If you get a white line  around the border, your artboard has fractional pixel dimensions.

Measure in pixels from the upper left corner, if the values have fractions, you will get additional pixels.

Use the Save For Web option, and under the Image Size tab, check the box for "Crop to Artboard".
