Editing with path operations
You can use path operations in the Modify menu to create new shapes by combining or
altering existing paths. For some path operations, the stacking order of selected path objects
defines how the operation works. For information on arranging the stacking order of selected
objects, see
“Stacking objects” on page 75 .
Combining path objects
You can combine path objects into a single path object. You can connect the end points of
two open paths to create a single closed path, or you can join multiple paths to create a
composite path.

2. Select two end points on two open paths.
3. Select Modify > Combine Paths > Join.
