How to Use the Pathfinder Options in Illustrator

2

In this Illustrator video, Robin Schneider demonstrates what each function of the Pathfinder does. She shows what cool results you’ll get with Exclude, explains how to see the results of Divide, and shares a great tip for best results when using Divide on an open path. And in case you can’t remember what each function does, Robin assures us that even the experts sometimes resort to trial and error!

This video is an excerpt from Robin’s “Illustrator Fundamentals Refresh” session at CreativePro’s Adobe Illustrator Summit event in September 2022.
