You could have set up the bleeds when you first set up the document in the New
Document dialog box by choosing File > New.Working with basic shapes
In the first part of this lesson, you’ll create a series of basic shapes, such as rectangles, ellipses,
rounded rectangles, polygons, and more. Shapes you create are composed of anchor points with
paths connecting the anchor points. A basic square, for instance, is composed of four anchor
points on the corners with paths connecting the anchor points (see the figure at right). A shape is
referred to as a closed path.
Examples of closed paths.A path can be closed, or it can be open with distinct anchor points on each end, called end points
(see the figure at right). Both open and closed paths can have fills applied to them.
