Note, however, that this will work only if none of the paragraphs have left
or right indents or at least all have the same indents.

Don't use a page border. Instead, select the text that you want
a border around, and click on Format | Borders and Shading |
Borders tab | Style: choose a border line style | Setting: Box
| OK.

full
page or just sections of the text or paragraph, how do I do this?

thank-you
