How do I put a border on in pages

How do I put a border on a page in 'pages'?

Pamela,
Insert a rectangular Shape
Set the Fill to None
Adjust the border of the shape to your preferred weight and color.
Resize and Position the Shape
Arrange > Lock the shape.
If you need this on more than one page, Select and Copy the Shape before locking it, then Paste it to each page where you want it to appear
Save the template..
Regards,
Jerry

  • How can I put a border around my page, or around text?

    I rarely use Pages. Only when Textedit won't do something.
    I want a frame (or box or border or whatever you want to call it) around my page. I haven't been able to figure it out from the Help. I found something about a "text box" but that seems to require creating the box first.
    Thanks a lot!
    Also, it seems that you don't have any control over where a text box is when you create it. There must be something I'm missing here.

    Hi:
    You don't say whether you've got Pages 1 or Pages 2.
    The techniques are a little bit different. But in either one, you might find it easier to follow this to begin by choosing "View / Show Layout from the menu.
    In Pages 1, you create a text box from the insert menu, choosing insert / text.
    In Pages 2, you can simply click on the T icon in the toolbar. Use View / Customise Toolbar if it's not there, and put it there.
    The text box will show on your page. Where it is doesn't matter: you can size and move it wherever you want - including outside the layout margins of your page. Just be aware that what you can print may depend on your printer. Some (mostly lasers nowadays) won't print to the edge of the page.
    To size and move your text box, you click on the margin outside it and then select / all (Command / a) to put handles on it. If this doesn't let you move it, or it springs back once you have, then go to the Arrange menu and send it back. This is because when forward it can be confined by other things on the page - even provision for a header or footer in the blank template, for example: so you might not necessarily see what's stopping it being moved.
    But Pages is a hands on program. It's always harder to describe what you do than it is to do it. Play around with it; get the hang of it. OK, so now you've got your text box. Now bring up an Inspector box, and choose the Object Inspector: the one with the square and the circle. That's where you put your borders in. Choose the line style, the colour, and point size you want, and there you are. You can do this with other text already entered: the box will hide it if the box is at the front, but if it's sent back text or other objects there when you started the box will show (and print) through it.
    You can border your page with shapes in much the same way, but a text box is maybe the simplest. And you can also overlay text boxes or other objects if you want multiple borders, special effects, or when you really get into it, line and border fonts you can get from 3rd party suppliers. A freeware example is "Borders" and you can search for it in Mac OsX downloads.
    Some printers will also allow you to surround your page with a border. If so, you'll find it simpler, but the border will go where the printer wants, and you'll only be able to set margins, which it will follow.
    Here's a tip: if you want objects you work with centred on the page sometimes, you can choose in Pages preferences to have guidelines originate from the centre of your object as you move it across the centre of your page. When you get two of them, your object is centred. But be careful if you've set up for facing pages with the margins different: there's one centre for a left page, and another for the right one.
    Too hard? Not if you use the program. You'll find out what's there, and use it easily. But Pages is not a toy, and it's not a mere text editor. Don't waste your money by letting it rot. Learn it, and you'll be astonished at what it can do.
    You can also do borders with other objects, like shapes, and the principles are much the same. Choose what best suits your project, once you know what's there. But Text Edit? You've got to be joking. It's like the old IBM/DOS one with fonts thrown in. Better learn Pages before it bores you to death!
    Cheers.

  • How can i put a border around it?

    Could anyone tell me how i can put a border around the HD symbol?
    And how can i make everything without the HD Symbol transparent?

    And how can i make everything without the HD Symbol transparent?
    Hide the Background Layer and save a copy in a file format that supports transparency (psd, png-24, …).
    What will you use it for?
    Because vector data would make sense for printing, so Illustrator might be a better choice than Photoshop for this.
    Could anyone tell me how i can put a border around the HD symbol?
    With the Layer that contains the shape selecected try Layer > Layer Style > Stroke.

  • How can I put an image in the page header so that it will be repeated on every page?

    Hi to everyone!
    I want to create a Pages template with the logo of our company in the page header.
    I'd like to put that image (logo) in the page header so that it will be repeated on every page but it will not modify the content of the page.
    Anyone know how to achive this, or something similar without have to copy-paste that image every time we add a page to the document?
    Thanks in advance

    Takashi,
    Turn off the Page Headers (not absolutely necessary, but since you don't need it, why not)
    Put your Graphic on the page and make the following settings:
    Then Insert > Text Box and make the same settings as for the graphic.
    Place your "Header text" in the text box and arrange the box and graphic as you want them. Move both to Section Master using the Arrange menu.

  • How do I put a border around my title, please?

    I have a title page for a short video, edited in Premiere Pro, for YouTube.  I want to put a rectangular frame (border) around that title page.  I want the color of the border  to be the same color as the font in the title.  How do I do this, please?  Below are the three elements from Publisher - background, title and frame.  I want to combine the same elements in Premiere Pro. (I'm not trying to use Publisher in Premiere Pro, I am just trying to make it clearer what I am trying to do.) (I'm a rookie, obviously.)  Thank you.

    OK.
    First of all the yellow line started life as a rectangle. I eliminated the fill by unchecking it, and added an inner stroke. To get the same yellow you used, I took a screen capture of your image then added it to my title as a logo. That allowed me to use the eyedropper next to the rectangle to sample your yellow text for the color of the stroke. When the stroke was properly yellow, I deleted the logo (your text).
    Then I typed the text and using the eyedropper again, I changed the color to match the outline.
    Adding a little bit of shadow makes it look better, by the way. Like this:
    These are my settings for the above

  • How to put decorative border on a page.

    HI all
    Pages 09.  I'm creating some sheets for a stamp album to mount my collection.  Is there a choice of borders anywhere?  Also I need to measure the stamp  sizs and draw a box around where the stamp will mount.
    Then I label everything.
    It was easy many years ago using Word Perfect but I don't see anything in Pages I can use.
    I appreciate any help
    Thanks
    Allen

    Allen,
    Pages has a border stroke called Picture Frame with several pattern options. Here's an example where I have used rectangular shapes with No FIll. A border stroke was set to Picture Frame for the largest rectangle. I prefer using a Page Layout template for this.

  • How can I put a message in a page after an action in another page?

    Hi everybody, I know that what I try to explain is a bit difficult to understand without know all the context but I try to do it the same:). I have a datatable that contains a list of student. In another page I insert a new student. When I click on "save" button I save the new student and I return to the page with the datatable. The problem is: when I add a student I must notify the user that the student is added correctly with a message in the 1st page like "The student is added correctly". This message must display only after I added the student not when I see for the first time the page with the datatable. How can i do this? Thanks to all.

    I use your suggestion but it doesn't work. I create a bean named MessageHandler with scope request. In its constructor i put an empty value for the variable addStudent_message, and in the page that the message should be I have this line of code:
    <h:outputText rendered="#{!empty messageHandler.addStudent_message}" value="#{messageHandler.addStudent_message}"/>
    In the bean I used to add a student I have a MessageHandler object and in the method that add a student, before the return statement, I put this:
    handler.setAddStudent_message("Studente aggiunto correttamente");
    When I run, it gives me this error:
    type Exception report
    message

  • How can i put the top of index page when i move to my domain?

    might be confusing question, so sorry.
    just click this page and read the topic again plz.
    http://bigshouting.cafe24.com/
    when you click, you could see not the top of index page but the bottom...
    how can i fix this?
    Can you guys explain with procedure?

    The problem is that you have a form at the bottom of the page that has a field set to 'autofocus'. Meaning that when the page loads it will automatically put the cursor in that box and of course to do so it will have to scroll down to it.
    You need to remove the auto focus from that form field or move the form to the top of the page.

  • How to automatically put in my email when page visitor clicks on 'contact webmaster'?

    I uploaded new pages using a template and at the bottom of each page is a 'contact webmaster' link.  When I clicked on this to check it out, using Safari, it opens my mail program (Mail) with a new message window but does not automatically put in the email address.  The link code is: mail to:"[email protected]".  How can I get it to add the address after it opens the email window?
    The web site is http://www.anewharvest.org
    Thanks for your help.

    Highlight the link, use mailto: in the link properties field followed by your real email address.
    <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Contact Webmaster</a>
    That said, this won't work for everyone.  Only people with an email client installed on their web device will be able to contact you this way.  And you will eventually get tons of spam mail. So get a 2nd email account.
    Scripted Contact forms are a much better way for people to contact you.  And you get better protection from email harvesters and spam bots.

  • How do I put a watermark on all pages

    I have a 42 page document that I originally did in the page layout view and couldnt get a watermark to appear on it. I researched and discovered I should have done it in the word processing template. I have now copied and pasted the whole document into a word processing document but now every page has pasted over as a separate section- is there a way to link the sections to enable the watermark to be on every page? At the moment it just stays on the first page. Apparently it is because they are all individual sections. PLEASE HELP!

    Hi NikkiMiskin
    Welcome to the forum.
    You need to form up your document with the watermark in Word Processing mode:
    +Menu > Format > Advanced > Capture Page/s+
    Now click in each body of text of the Layout mode document copy all and paste in turn into the WP document text area between the margins.
    Just make sure that the text continues on in one long stream from beginning to end.
    Alternatively you could:
    +Menu > View > Show Invisibles+
    …and hunt for and delete the section breaks, but I am unsure how you have constructed the document and this may lead to confusion.
    As a general rule, except for very short documents with a lot of fiddly layout, stick to WP mode it has by far the most features and least pain to use them.

    Richard ~ iWeb's blog is not very reliable — so I would recommended you avoid putting clickable thumbnails there. But for other template pages (except the Photos page), this old thread has some suggestions:
