Hi all. I two images in an Indesign document and I'm trying to add a consistent stroke to both images. Looking at the numerical value, they both are 1 pt., but they are both clearly different while looking at them on my screen. Any ideas as to what the issue is and how to fix it? Thanks in advance.
Check the scaling percentage on the shapes. I'd bet that one of them is not at 100%.
This has to do with how your preferences are set in regard to scaling. Set like this, the point size (or type size) number remains the same, but the items are scaled up or down.
Here I have duplicated your exact situation.
You can fix it by choosing the scaled item and using the menu on the top right of the program to Redefine Scaling as 100%.
You can prevent this going forward by changing your preferences to Apply to Content.
