Adding and Deleting Anchor Points
Creating a path is not necessarily the end of the job; in fact, there are many ways you
can modify a path once it's been created. For example, you can add, subtract, or delete
anchor points on an existing path. You can also modify those points to conform to any
desired shape. In addition, existing anchor points can be modified to change the segments
connecting the points. Just like anything else in Illustrator, paths are flexible. They can be
modified to meet whatever design considerations are needed to make the job successful.
