MS Word Training For Top-Tier Legal - If The Page Number Needs To Go Under Page Border

If The Page Number Needs To Go Under Page Border As always, you can add a time is of the essence situation, someone over you asking for the document NOW and not knowing why you can't get the page number below the page border line. Scenario: Document is making use of a Page Border covering all the sections of a document. The Page Border being used is one that hugs the Text of the page rather than one that uses "Edge of Page". In this case, it really makes no difference other than wanting to give you a clear picture. So, the secretary was asked to please place the Page Numbers under the bottom "border line". The secretary added returns to no avail, tried playing with the margins to no avail and the more time that passed the more stressful it became. This is a simple fix as many of you know, but being at a certain level means that you have a good library of scenarios in your head so that you don't end up in a situation whereby the fix is simple but you just don't know how to solve it. So here is another one to cross off the list. 1. Go to Borders and Shading. I usually go to it under the Home Tab. I go to the Borders box (about Midway across and when entering go down to Borders and Shading. 2. When entering the Dialog Box, Click on the Page Border tab. 3. In the white Preview Box on the right you will see the Border. Go into Options. (bottom right) 4. Under Options, this is where you get to choose whether your Page Border is using the Edge of Page or right up against the Text option. 5. In order to get your page numbers to come in under the Page Border Remove the check that is next to "Surround Footer" and when going back to your main screen the Border will have pulled up above the page number and the issue is solved. Give it a try so you will know how to handle this same scenario right away.
