Borders can grab the reader’s attention and highlight your information. In Word, you can add borders to specific sections of text or to entire pages. Word has a lot of frame styles available, but if you can’t find the one you want, you can use an image file to create your own border.
Steps
Add border to text

Highlight the text that you want to frame. Borders work best when you’re highlighting an entire paragraph or a separate line. If you highlight multiple lines that are not in the same paragraph, each line will have its own frame. [1] X Research Source

Create separate sections to use different frames in one document. Normally, a page border will be applied to all pages in the document. If you want the frame to apply only to specific pages, or you want to create different borders for different pages, you need to divide the document into “sections”. [2] X Research Source
- Place the mouse pointer at the bottom of the page before the page where you want to start the new section.

Insert the picture that you want to use as a border. If you want to use a picture as a frame instead of the built-in border tool, you can insert a picture into the document. You can use a separate image for each border, or insert a complete frame image. There are several ways to proceed:
- Click the Insert tab and select “Pictures”. Browse for the contour image you want to use.
- Click and drag the file to drop it into the document. The image will be inserted.
- Copy a photo from the web page and paste it into the document.

Select the picture and click the Format tab to change the position and layer.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/56/Add-a-Border-to-Word-Step-20-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Add- a-Border-to-Word-Step-20-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/56/Add-a-Border-to- Word-Step-20-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Add-a-Border-to-Word-Step-20-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Click the “Wrap Text” button and select “Behind Text”. The entire text will be above the image file, which is especially useful if the image is a complete frame. You can also move the image without affecting the text.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/83/Add-a-Border-to-Word-Step-21-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Add- a-Border-to-Word-Step-21-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/83/Add-a-Border-to- Word-Step-21-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Add-a-Border-to-Word-Step-21-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Move and resize the image if necessary. You can click and drag the photo to the appropriate position. Click the corners of the frame and drag to resize the image.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/83/Add-a-Border-to-Word-Step-22.jpg/v4-728px-Add-a-Border- to-Word-Step-22.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/83/Add-a-Border-to-Word-Step-22.jpg/ v4-728px-Add-a-Border-to-Word-Step-22.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Repeat with additional border images. If you are creating contours from several different image files, repeat the process until the entire image is in place. If you need to flip the image upside down (for opposite sides), click the Rotate button in the Format tab and choose Flip Horizontal or Vertical.
