In the Measure from list, click Text , and then click OK two times. On the Paper tab, change the setting to 10" in the Height box. The Paper Size setting changes to Custom Size. Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
Most printers cannot print to the edge of the paper because of the physical limitations in the way that the printers handle paper. If you set the document margins close to the edge of the paper, and the printer cannot print that close to the edge of the paper, Word and Microsoft Word Viewer return a warning message every time that the document is sent to the printer. Therefore, if you print more than one copy of the document, you will receive the error message more than one time. Most laser printers, such as the HP LaserJet, cannot print closer than 0.
Generally, DeskJet printers cannot print closer than 0. Most PostScript printers and dot-matrix printers have their own internal printer driver settings for margins.
For more information about nonprintable regions, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:. Microsoft makes no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding the performance or reliability of these products. Bordered paragraph text conforms to the page margins. This means that the borders must extend into the margins.
You can see this effect if you make the side borders Automatic instead of white: they will be slightly outside the text rather than right at the margin which is indicated by the dotted line. Presumably this is by design. You can select Custom , but as soon as you click on any of the buttons in the Preview, all are turned on or off.
In other words, this border is all or nothing, though at least you do get the same selection of line styles, colors, and weights. Borders and Shading dialog for selected text. If you want to apply a border to just one or more sides of the text, see this article. When your selection is in a table, the contextual Table Tools tabs are displayed.
The Design tab has tools for working with table borders. Draw Borders group on the Table Tools Design tab. Important Note: Even when you have removed the table borders, you will probably still see broken lines outlining the cells. That is because Word also, by default, displays table gridlines. The View Gridlines button to turn the display of table gridlines on and off is in the Table group on the Table Tools Layout tab and also on the Borders dropdown menu.
If you have text boundaries displayed File Options Advanced: Show document content: Show text boundaries , you will see dotted lines outlining the cells even if you are not displaying table gridlines. If you have experience applying paragraph borders , you may be able to figure out how to use the Ribbon buttons for line style, weight, and color along with the Borders dropdown to apply borders to the table or selected cells as desired. If you find this frustrating or inefficient, you will want to open the Borders and Shading dialog:.
Once you have clicked on that, it will be the default, and it is probably easier to click on than the dialog launcher. When the selection is in a table, the Borders tab of the Borders and Shading dialog has a different appearance from what you saw when adding paragraph or text borders.
Borders and Shading dialog for a table. Borders and Shading dialog for selected cells. Borders and Shading dialog for a single cell. As shown above, the Apply to setting will vary depending on whether you have the insertion point in a table or have the entire table selected or have only one or more cells selected. The Preview will also reflect the selection of a single cell, two cells horizontally or vertically, or four or more cells.
The biggest difference, however, is in the available presets. As shown, when a single table cell is selected, they are the same as for a paragraph. But when the entire table or more than one cell is selected, the presets change to None , Box , All , Grid , and Custom. None and Custom are self-explanatory, and Box works the same as for paragraphs: whether applied to a cell or cells or an entire table, it puts a box border around the entire selection.
All is also pretty straightforward: it applies a border of the currently selected style, weight, and color to every cell in the selection. The Grid preset is a little confusing, however. Instead, you must first select one of the inside borders horizontal or vertical , which will give it the same weight as the outside border, select the new weight, and then click the same border again.
At that point you can click the other inside border to apply the same weight. On the Borders menu, they are labeled Diagonal Up Border and Diagonal Down Border , and they are the two buttons that are disabled on the Home Paragraph Borders dropdown menu when the insertion point is in paragraph text because they are usable only in tables. What those buttons do is create diagonal lines that intersect your text like this:. They do not actually split your cell diagonally; they just create the appearance of doing so.
If you want to further this deception, you will need to format text accordingly:. You will have noticed that the Options… button is disabled. If you are coming to Word from WordPerfect, you may be accustomed to seeing a distinct difference between a bottom border on one cell and a top border on the one below. But you may also have found that this arrangement often made it very difficult to align intersecting borders properly.
Word works differently: a bottom border on one cell is in exactly the same location as a top border on the cell below. This is normally a good thing, but every now and then Word, in its infinite wisdom, will decide that the border you applied as a bottom border is actually at least in part a top border on the cell below, making it impossible to remove it by turning off the Bottom Border button on the Borders palette.
At such times you must just shrug and move on to the cell below and remove the top border. Tables continued from one page to another often lose the bottom border of the last row; sometimes you can restore it by explicitly applying a bottom border to that row not just borders between rows.
Word has a way of perversely interpreting a border between rows as being the top of one row or the bottom of another, but not both. Those last two border styles mentioned above? Although the shadowbox effect they create can be quite attractive, these styles achieve it by applying borders selectively and by adding 0. This can be insidious: If you apply one of these styles and then change to a different line style, the increased cell spacing remains in effect, and you get a double border.
This might encourage you to use the button labeled Draw Table. At least not to actually create a table. In order to create a table from scratch using Draw Table , you would have to select it from the Insert Tables Table or Home Paragraph Borders dropdown since the contextual Table Tools are displayed only when the insertion point is in an existing table.
I have yet to find a table that could not be effectively created using Insert Tables Table and then adjusting cell widths and merging or splitting as needed. And I have seen and corrected some horrible messes made by inexpert users using Draw Table actually, even for expert users, it is very difficult to avoid making a mess of your tables if you use this tool. The Draw Table button does have a useful function, however: when it is activated, you can use it to click on a cell boundary and apply the currently selected border.
Care should also be taken using the Eraser. When you click on a cell boundary with this tool, the result is to merge the two adjacent cells. That result can also be achieved by selecting the two cells, right-clicking, and choosing Merge Cells.
