Default cut here - dashed/dotted line with scissors icon

You can tweak the border in Publisher and *almost* get it down to a single
line. It might be easier to find some sort of a graphic that would work for
you.

How do you create/insert a "cut here line"? I prefer a dashed/dotted
line
with a scissors icon.

Thanks.


Insert either a double-quote character or a # character, and format it in
Wingdings font -- both are scissors, but in different orientations.

Then display the Drawing toolbar. Select the Line tool (next to the
AutoShapes
button) and draw a line near the scissors. Using the other buttons on the
Drawing toolbar, format the line to the color, thickness, and dash style
you
want.

Thanks.

I thought there would be an option for a ready made line style with a
scissor, like the one in MS Pub (although MS Pub is limited to complete
borders).
