Sure, I can help you with that! By default,
Microsoft Word limits the border size to
6pt, but there are a few workarounds you can use to create a wider border.
Option 1: Use a Shape- Click on the "Insert" tab in the ribbon.
- Click on the "Shapes" button and select a rectangle shape.
- Draw the rectangle shape on your document.
- Right-click on the shape and select "Format Shape" from the drop-down menu.
- In the "Format Shape" pane, select the "Line Style" tab.
- Increase the "Weight" value to make the border thicker.
- Change the "Color" to the desired color, such as teal.
Option 2: Use a Table- Click on the "Insert" tab in the ribbon.
- Click on the "Table" button and select "Insert Table."
- Create a table with one row and one column.
- Select the table and click on the "Design" tab in the ribbon.
- In the "Table Styles" section, click on the "Borders" drop-down menu.
- Select "Borders and Shading" from the drop-down menu.
- In the "Borders and Shading" dialog box, select the "Borders" tab.
- Increase the "Width" value to make the border thicker.
- Change the "Color" to the desired color, such as teal.
I hope this helps you create the wider border you need!
