'Cutting' type in InDesign



'Cutting' type in InDesign


Question

Is there a way, using the Scissors tool, to cut type into pieces within InDesign? I've converted said type to outlines, but when I use the Scissors tool I'm only able to bend existing points. Below is a video that shows the process I'm taking.

Thanks for any help.

Accepted Answer

I would suggest using the path finder.

Here's a link to an article on slicing and some basic how-to's describing both methods and their functionality.
