choose Legacy Shapes and More. To find the certificate
seal shape, expand the Legacy Shapes and More set,
followed by the All Legacy Default Shapes, and then
Banners and Awards. In that set, you’ll find the certif-
icate seal.
In order to have full control over the shape (includ-
ing the number of points and how much they’re
indented), use the Polygon tool instead (also nested
below the Rectangle tool). In the Options Bar, enter
the number of Sides. Then click on the gear icon to
open the Path Options, check Star, and enter a value
for Indent Sides By (e.g., 5–20%). Note that these val-
ues aren’t live, so you’ll have to draw the shape and if
you don’t like the results, delete it, change the settings,
and draw it again.
Also note that once you change the settings for the
Polygon tool, these will be the default settings until you
change them again. n
