I create a graphic in CorelDraw X7. I export it to a PNG. In the export parameters I select a width of 324 pixels. The resulting image is 323 pixels. How can I tell it that I want exactly 384 pixels?
I was frustrated with similar problems many years ago (Corel Draw 4), but the problem was solved long ago. Specifically, I don't have this problem in version X3.
Thanks

1) Select the graphic. Type Ctrl+E to get to Export menu
2) Give a name and location to your PNG bitmap (make sure that it will be saved as a PNG), then click "Export."
3) In the resulting dialog box, if you want a custom size to your exported bitmap, uncheck the "Maintain aspect ratio" and "Maintain size" boxes" (one of which happens to be checked in my attached screen capture. Sorry!)
4) Choose pixels as the units and the desired resolution for the exported bitmap *before* you select the specific pixel size you desire.
5) Click OK.
Hope this helps.
Try selecting the object and turn on Object > Object Hinting.
Thanks for the suggestion, Harry, but it made no difference.
Does the object have an outline or not?
Yes, it has an outline. It consists of group of colored closed curves.
Sorry, I misunderstood your question. The curves have no outline defined. There is a fill but no "pen".
I couldn't show you the project that originally led to the problem, but I've been able to reproduce the problem with a simple graphic.
Just create a rectangle, 156.52 mm x 40.756 mm. Set a fill color, and turn off any outline.
Follow any of the instructions given above, and you'll get the same result. A request for 324 pixels results in a width of 323 pixels.
