Export to TIFF with 100% scale are still cropped

My D7100 shoots at 6000x4000. With no corrections applied in C1, all exports are coming out at 5825x3883.

I'm liking some aspects of C1, namely skin tones, but adjusting to the workflow coming from LR and also DXo is proving to be a nightmare.

Any ideas what is going on here?

  My guess would be lens corrections but I may be wide of the mark.
  
  There are likely too many variables potentially in play to be able to provide a useful suggestion without knowing some specific details about what you have looked at so far and what C1 can tell you about any default pre-processing it has expected to perform for you.

  Sounds like lens corrections.
  
  Rather annoying

  If it is lens correction, it's not a very good implementation of it. DXo applies lens corrections but retains the original image size when exporting.
  
  I'm new to C1 and the learning curve and IMO cumbersome workflow is making me rethink switching over. I do really like the skin tones C1 pulls out but that's one pro with so far, a handful of cons.

  So what do you think DXo is doing to make that happen?
  
  Is the image produced cropped from the original to make the corrections and then expanded to the expected size of the sensor as published by the manufacturer? Or are the pixels being pushed around/removed/backfilled to fit within the published size with no cropping?
  
  I would guess that you could make an output recipe that, before any elective cropping is applied, would produce a working file for output of the size you want. It's not something I have tried but then I nearly always crop images anyway for one reason or another so the loss of a few pixels here and there is a minor matter as far as I am concerned. Loss at the edge may sometimes be an issue if my framing was unfortunate for some detail but that just means I was over optimistic in the first place. I could also go back to the uncorrected frame and tackle any required correction myself.
  
  You might need to consider using something like 102% scale to give something generically useful or, more simple, just define the required size in the output recipe.
  
  HTH.
