Word 2016

A DDING A B ORDER TO A P AGE  D ISCUSSION Page borders can enhance the appearance of a document such as an invitation. Page borders are created in the Borders and Shading dialog box Page Border tab.

Select the page border type: box, shadow, or 3-D. Then, choose the border’s line style, line color, and line width (thickness). Although the style, color, and width settings apply to all lines in the page border by default, use the Custom setting to apply different settings to each line in the page border.

If your document contains sections, apply a page border to the whole document, the current section, the first page of the current section, or to every page in the current section except the first page.

The Options button on the Page Border page provides selections for modifying the border placement on the page. Borders can be placed at specific distances from the edge of the page or from the text.
