Map export and rendering discrepancy

Map export and rendering discrepancy

I have completed the exercise and exported my maps but found out the map rendered differs from what is on the screen. 

I'll attach the two

QGIS view
Image showing the qgis view

Exported map


The difference is highlighted in the blue circle. The export is showing some bounding box where the mask is not reaching but it doesn't appear on the qgis view. This happens on all the exported map

I also experience similar issue when I esported to pdf format by the method explained in the instructions. I got better rendered maps in pdf versions when I exported to pdf but I did through menu Atlas > Export Atlas as PDF. Alternatively I got even better rendered maps when I used manu Atlas > Export Atlas and Images. Then I converted them to pdf as one file. I hope that will help.

I had the same weird experience and can confirm after exporting as Images, the results are exactly as in the layout preview. Thanks, Michael!
