How do I wrap text around the border of the page
I was wondering if there was a way that you could type and the words would
literally wrap around the border of the page... Have them type along the top, then down the side, then upside down on the bottom then back up on the left side... If this can be done can you please tell me how cause I know people do it all the time |

I doubt if they are doing it with Word. You would have better luck with a
DTP program. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Josh" wrote in message ...

Hi Josh,
You can do it in Word, but it's a bit tedious, in part because while Word can type across, down the side and back up the other side it doesn't have an upside down setting. If you go to View=Header/Footer (or in the main page) create a 3 row/3column per row table and then set the zoom to 'whole page. Drag the 2nd row and bottom rows to the bottom of the page. On the top row select the first and middle cells and use Table=Merge Cells. On the right side, the top and middle cell, on the bottom, the right and middle cells and on the left the bottom and middle cells. You can use the Tables and Borders toolbar to set the text direction on the top, left and right, but for the bottom you'll need to type some text, cut it, Edit=Paste Special as a picture then flip the picture and position it in the bottom row of the table. ===== "Josh" wrote in message ...
