This makes picking choices from the drop-down list easier. You can quickly remove a paragraph border by selecting None in the Borders and Shading dialog box or No Border from the drop-down list displayed in step 2.Īfter you set border attributes, Word will continue to use the same attributes until you change them again.

Click the down-arrow next to the Borders tool, in the Paragraph group.(If you select multiple paragraphs, then the border you are defining will be applied to each individual paragraph in the selection.)

To add borders to your paragraph, follow these steps:

You can add borders to any or all sides of a paragraph, or you can create a drop-shadow effect. Word allows you to quickly and easily add different types of borders to your paragraphs.
