Default highlighting changes to document

In the same document I want to highlight one or more paragraph from time to
time. This is to attract users to read the paragrah highlighted. I can't
achieve this by changing the text color.

Traditionally we do it by adding a "hightlighting bar" next to the paragrah.
This is just a vertical line and it helps us because when the document is
printed, the line is clearly printed.

You may ask why we didn't use text color change (instead of a hightling
bar), it is because the document is usually printed in greyscale (non-color)
for reading. Grey is not really standing out of black.

At this moment we insert this "highlighting bar" by inserting a graphical
line onto the document manually. We found a problem after this graphical line
is inserted: we often have to spend quite some time to re-format the text
for each paragrph we've inserted the graphics next to it. Do I miss anything
(do I miss any build-in Word feature that achieves the same)?

Any other suggestions ?
