InDesign: How to Make Custom Bullets from a Photo (Video Tutorial)
In this “Three Minutes Max” video, Mike Rankin demos a fun way to create some unique custom bullet characters in InDesign. He first goes into Illustrator and uses the trace function to convert his photos to vector artwork. Then using a plug-in called Fontself Maker, he creates glyphs from each photo and saves out his newly created font. Back in InDesign, Mike assigns a custom bullet character using that font.
You can find Fontself Maker here: https://www.fontself.com/store and it’s only $39 for the Illustrator-only version!
Three Minutes Max comes from a fun—yet very competitive—session at our annual CreativePro Week conference.
