In Illustrator, you can create shapes that can be used as strokes in your artwork. To do this, you first need to create a shape called a “shape object.” This is a container for your shapes. Next, you need to add the stroke to your shape object. To do this, select the shape object and click on the stroke button at the bottom of the screen. You will then be able to choose how long you want your stroke to be. You can also choose how much pressure you want to apply when Stroking.
