Export as graphic not working as expected....

Posted: 08-05-2004, 12:24 AM
Okay, I'm using Illustrator 11 (CS) to export a file as a JPEG (or often times as PNG). It's sending all the contents on the pasteboard as well, versus what is on the printable area of the document. So the graphic contains everything, including the pasteboard contents.

Is there a way to control this? I can't see any way to do this. To me, it doesn't make sense that it would do this by default, unless there is a reason that I'm not seeing.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks

Sun,

Try setting the area you would like to export using the crop marks. Go to Object -> Crop marks - > make after drawing and selecting a rectangular object around what you want to export.

Hey, that works perfect. I still don't understand the logic behind the export without the crop area defined (why it exports why it does), but this does the job.

Thank you. You've been a big help.

Another way: Save For Web, then under Image Size, check the option for Clip to Artboard.
