Subtract Front Removes from the back object the areas of overlap- ping objects in front. The back object retains its ink attributes. Subtract Back Removes from the front object the areas of overlap- ping objects behind it. The front object retains its ink attributes. Crop Removes areas of objects that are not behind the top object. Divide Creates new objects where selected objects overlap. This option lets you use lines to “cut” other objects in pieces. Slice Cuts the path of an object where it intersects with objects in front of it in the stacking order. Unlike other combine methods, slice results in open-ended paths. For example, slicing a circle in half with a line produces two arcs, as opposed to two closed semicircles.
