saveasExact(I,filen​ame,format,dims)

Save image to jpg/tiff/png with exact dimensions/no broder

You are now following this Submission

A wrapper function to save matrices/figures as jpg, tiff, png and other formats using exact pixel dimensions and without the white border. Core save as and print functions generally rescale the image and add a white border (e.g. 256x256 becomes 1500x900) which can be inconvenient for quantitative applications such as generating inputs to machine learning. This function is a convenience wrapper based on MatlabCentral and StackOverflow answers about this issue.
