Hi, every time I save a file as jpeg or tiff illustrator adds .08 to the width and takes .08 off the height. I save with use Artboard ticked but it still alters the dimensions of the file. Please can someone advise how can I stop it doing this as I need to save my files to the exact pixel size, of width and height, that I have created? Thank you.
Create an Illustrator file at 4600 X 2000 px and export it at 72 ppi.
That will give you the exact pixel dimensions.
A pixel does not have a fixed size.
For historical reasons Illustrator defines a pixel as 1/72th of an inch.
The same 4600 X 2000 px file can be smaller and larger depending on the amount of ppi you specify.
At 72 ppi it will print as 126,8 cm X 70,56 cm
At 300 ppi it will print as 38,95 X 16,93 cm
