‍

Here’s a quick guide on how to delete image background using anchor points in Adobe InDesign:

‍

1. To delete an image background using anchor points in InDesign, go to the left-hand toolbar and click the 'Pen tool.'
2. Using the tool, add your first point, which will serve as the starting anchor point.
3. Add more points, tracing the part of the image you want to keep.
4. Once you have traced the part of the image you want to keep, connect your path to the frame using anchor points. Add points to all corners of the frame.
5. Once you have added points to all corners and reached your starting anchor point, close the path by clicking on the first point.
6. Your image outline should look like this (see image). Then, use the Selection tool from the left-hand toolbar to select the image.
7. Once the image is selected, go to the top menu and click 'Object' → 'Pathfinder' → 'Subtract' to remove the background.
8. You have successfully deleted the image background using anchor points in InDesign.
