The Reduce Points command (Construct > Reduce > Reduce Points) traverses polygon edges and removes any points (from the polygons) that form an angle with adjacent points that is less than the Degrees setting.
This command is especially useful to reduce the number of points and polygons generated by extruding or beveling text objects.
Simply select a Point Reduction Threshold setting and the Degrees will be set automatically.
You can also enter your own Degrees setting. Activate Delete Points to delete the removed points.
