Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Step1
Select the object, photo or text frame you want to apply the feather effect to by clicking on it or using the selection tool.
Step2
Choose the "Object" option from the drop-down menu then choose "Feather" to bring up the feather dialog box.
Step3
Check the "Feather" box, as well as the "Preview" option to see the feather effect you apply.
Step4
Change the width of the feather effect you want to display. Since you've selected Preview, you will be able to see your work and adjust it to your liking.
Step5
Decide among the three choices for edges in the Corners list. Sharp is a tighter effect, and may work well with text frames. Round gives you rounded edges around the object. Diffuse creates a fading effect.
Step6
Click "OK." It's that easy to apply feather effect with InDesign.
