How to Change the Weight of Rounded Corners in Illustrator
When using Adobe Illustrator, you may choose to add rounded borders to frames on a document. Regardless of whether the corners on an object in your Illustrator document are rounded or if they are at 90-degree angles, the process you follow to change the weight of them does not vary. When referring to "weight" in Illustrator, you are simply referring to the thickness and darkness of the border.
