Thumbs up Answer: different borders on each page

Sure thing! Here's how you can insert different borders on each page in Microsoft Word:
  1. First, open the document you want to add borders to.
  2. Go to the page where you want to add a specific border.
  3. Click on the "Page Layout" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
  4. Click on the "Page Borders" button in the "Page Background" section of the ribbon.
  5. In the "Borders and Shading" dialog box that appears, select the "Page Border" tab.
  6. Under "Setting," choose the type of border you want to add (e.g. Box, Shadow, 3-D, etc.).
  7. Under "Apply to," select "This section - First page only."
  8. Click on the "OK" button to apply the border to the current page only.
  9. If you want to add a different border to another page, repeat the process starting from step 2.

That's it! You can now add different borders to each page of your document. Just remember to select "This section - First page only" under "Apply to" each time you want to add a border to a specific page.

Default different borders on each page

Hi dw

If you just want a different border on page 1, then do this:

1. Click anywhere in your document and do Format Borders and Shading.

2. On the Page Borders tab, choose the border you want for all but the first
page of the document, make sure the "Apply to" box says "Whole document" and
click OK.

3. Now, back to the Page Borders tab. This time, choose the border you want
for just the first page. Set the "Apply to" box to say "This section - first
page only" and click OK.

If your needs are more complex than that, then you'll need to have different
sections for each page border. See the following:

Hope this helps.
