Hi everybody,

On illustrator, I would like to know if it is possible to measure the length of a curve from a point A to a point B. If so, how should one do?

Thanks for your help

You can see the length of a selected path in the Document info window:

    I go to the Window tab and then select Document info and I get a pop-up tab that looks nothing like this (the one I get says "Document info" on one side and "Attributes" on the other, and neither one has any inforation about the length of my stroke)... Is there "document info" located somewhere else as well?  Why does Adobe make this so difficult to locate? (I am not even looking for information about my "document," I am looking for a measurement for the length of a stroke).

    Do you see the panel menu open in my screenshot? Open it and select 'Objects' instead of 'Document'.
