Question
Hi!
I'm having trouble exporting pngs of vector graphics from Illustrator. Everything is working fine, but for some reason the very bottoms of the vectors are being cropped off. I need to maintain the transparent background. Any advice you have would be great! Thanks!

Answer
Hi Megan

Everything that is on the artboard is exported out. It sounds like your image extends beyond the boundaries of the artboard. Either enlarge your document size and shift your image or reduce everything a little to fit on the page/artboard.
