Illustrator is a great program for creating graphics. However, if you want to copy a shape from another image, you will need to use the Clone tool. The Clone tool is located in the Tools palette and it looks like this: To clone a shape, click on the Clone button and then select the shape you want to copy. The Clone tool will create a copy of the selected shape, just like if you had used the mouse to select the shape and then clicked on the Clone button.
