How to create a non-trivial path in InDesign

Fair point, @Lordrhavin that gave me a chuckle.

You're right that InDesign isn't exactly a sculptor’s chisel when it comes to vector paths. It's more like a butter knife. It’ll spread the basics around but don’t ask it to carve the Mona Lisa.

That said, each Adobe app has its lane InDesign’s built for layout, Illustrator’s the one with the fancy vector chops. Still, I totally get the frustration. You'd think that within the same Creative Cloud ecosystem, we wouldn’t have to play app hopscotch just to drop in a decent curve.

SVG handling could definitely use a rethink too especially for those of us trying to streamline workflows and not reinvent the wheel every time we need a squiggle.

Guess each tool for what it's for, unfortunately.

What is a "non-trivial" path? 

And why not do it in Illustrator? 

Are you aware that SVG is not for print, it is for WEB.

SVG does not support CMYK or color management. SVG is ok for web only, screen only documents, not for print.

Why not using Illustrator?
