      hello Everyone! I am new to this forum and generally to InDesing software thoughlike exploring it. I really hope someone will be able to help me. Basically, I want to print stickers in shape of numbers in InDesign and there will be roughly 50 of them on the sheet. as these are going to be stickers I need to printer to make cutting on the edge of each number so I can take it off nicely from the sticking paper. I did create outlines for all the numbers. But also want the cutting outline to be around 5mm smaller than the original outline of the numbers/ How to do this?
      Many thanks in advance for your help.

      You want the outline to be smaller than the numbers? Not bigger?

      InDesign is not the best tool for this. Illustrator is probably better at creating offset paths for stickers. But the “offset path” script might help, which you can download here: https://indesignsecrets.com/indesign-cad-tool.php
