I am trying to export my artboards as PNG's so I can put them in a video editing program to play music behind it. But the problem I'm facing is just exporting said artboards. A few of them are fine- but most of them are not showing the actual designs, just exported as "blank"-I have white,black, or color- backgrounds Or it has half the design but not the full design. I've tried "Export As...", "Export for screens (this one I can actually see preview's and everything looks fine in the preview but still the same issue), my app is up to date, I've made sure all the overprint buttons I can find in settings and attributes is checked off. in the overprint preview It looks similar to the mix up pngs I do get but again... I've changed all of those settings. I've tried on Mac and Windows.
Anyhelp? -please don't give me a tutorial of exporting- I've attached a couple of files. The only way I was able to get something to work was saving it as an svg but I can't use the svg for the purpose I want.

WHen you open the PNGs in Photoshop - do they show what they should show?

Can you share a problem artboard as .ai?
You can attach them to a post as PDF (or when you rename the .ai to.pdf)

I don't have any problem artboards it's just as exports. I don't have a ton of layers just some clipping masks and grouping but all the objects are filled with color not transparent. I have saved some as pdf.s but I can't open them with premier pro or another video editing app.

Thanks, you have Overprint applied to the disappearing objects.
Select All, check/uncheck the Overprint checkboxes untill they are empty.

But maybe you can try to put the Illustrator file into Premiere instead of pngs.

JHC.... yeah... that was it. Thank you. I could have sworn I got all the attributes/overprint checks I could find.... I'm very new to illustrator and really appreciate the help!
