How do I put an outline border around a table i.e. without internal borders being displayed?

Hi
I'd appreciate some help with putting a border around a table
as I'm sure
I'm not doing this the best way!
I selected my table then chose a thin (size 2) border and
desired colour.
The problem is this has put a border around every cell in the
table.
Trying to remove the internal borders has been very
frustrating!
Just be clear, when I say "remove the internal borders" I
don't want to
merge cells I just want to stop the borders displaying.
So...
Is there a quick way to simply put an outline border around
the table?
What is the best method for removing internal borders?
Having got so used to the ease of formatting tables in MS
Word this is a bit
of a hair puller!!
Thanks for your time.
Happy New Year!!
Ian

Don't use the property inspector to add the border - you will
need to use
css...

How can I put a colored border around the whole page?

I just want to know how to pur a colored border around the whole page?

Hi Rachel,
Here's an example. Instructions follow the image:
Start with a new, Blank word processing document.
Insert a rectangle shape (the darker green is the default colour)
Change the colour to your desired border colour, using the Fill Color well in the format bar.
Set the Stroke to none, using the first popup menu on the Format bar. (I missed this step in the example, leaving the black line seen at the rigth edge of the pages.)
Drag the handles to resize to shape to cover the whole page.
Go to the View menu and choose Show Layout to see thae area that text will occupy.
Insert a second rectangle shape on the page.
Set its Fill colour to whatever bckground colour you want in the text area,
Set the Stroke to none.
Resize the second shape to fit just outside the text area indicated on the Layout.
Select both shapes, then go Arrange > Group.
Go Arrange > Move Object to Background.
Go Format > Advanced > Move Object to Section Master.
If either of:
Go Arrange > Make Background Objects Selectable
Go Format > Advanced > Make Maste Objects Selectable
have checkmarks beside them,
Select that item to uncheck it.
The frame will now appear on every page in the section.
Regards,
Barry

In pages/Pixelmator how do you put a white border around a piece of font, to make it stand out more. Please Help

The Benchwarmers logo, I would like to have a white border around the font to make it stand out. Help please

You would be better served to take a closer look at BeLight's free Art Text 2 Lite, or on YouTube, search for "Pixelmator text effects," or review the several Pixelmator tutorials on their site. Pages does not support the layered text effects necessary to create the Benchwarmers logo, but certainly can incorporate this image once completed through external means. Is the following image the one you have in mind:

<div align="center" style="border: 1px solid #00000;">
<table width="800" height="85" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="5" 1="0">
or give the <div> an id:

I just bought a C4680 all-in-one new in box. It puts an irregular border around "borderless" prints

I just bought a C4680 all-in-one new in box. It puts an irregular border around "borderless" prints (at least in 8.5 x ll size) --border is about 1 inch on right, 3/4 at top, 3/8 at bottom and 3/16 at left. How do I eliminate this?
Using win XP.

In iTunes on your computer, select the Purchased section under STORE in the left column. Click on the first track and choose "Get Info" from the "File" menu.
In the "Summary" tab you'll see details of the purchaser of the track. Click Next to go through all your purchased music one by one until you find the ones you need to get rid of.
Unfortunately, there are no smart playlist rules that can filter tracks by the purchaser that I know of.

How can I create a white border around figures that are in an image? (CS 6; examples+image included)

Hi,
I have CS6 and am wondering how to create a white ("comic style"?) border around figures in an image, as in the examples below. I don't wish to include the black shadow of the border, just the white part.
Examples:
Here's the image I'd like to alter, making a white border around the outline of all five figures:
I researched for quite a while but could find no instructions. It would be very much appreciated if someone knows and would be kind enough to share the technique! Thank you.

If you make the image a layer (opposed to Background)...
You could Select the blue with the Magic Wand as Semaphoric says, then fill with white. Then choose Select - Modify Selection - Contract, and mask or delete the remaining pixels. The Contract operation will give you a nice border the size you choose.
For extra credit, you could use Refine Edge to make the selection more accurate.
Click to see the image against a dark background.

I want to put a stylish border around my sign.

How do I put a border around the sign I made? I made it in text, but could do it in any other app as long as it's free. Thanks!

Align is deprecated code. Better to use CSS classes instead.
.center {text-align:center}
<p class="center"> This is centered</p>
<p>This is not centered</p>

How to get rid of white border around Container Div (main box)?

I have look and look for a solution but couldn't find one. I'm developing a website but the main issue is the white (I changed it black so you can see what I'm talking about) border around the website when i go to preview it from DW to Google Chrome or Internet Explorer.
I've tried everything! from setting body margins all to zero but nothing works... can anyone help me?!

No that's not what I'm talking about, the black div bot on the top is what i put, I put the entire style.css code in my last post, I'm talking about the white border on the right inside the scroll bar.
let me explain from the bottom, let say I don't put Margin: 0 under Body in my style.css . I get a white (I made it Green to show you better) border around my entire webpage looking like this:
so this made me curios because I wanted to know why it gave me this border without putting Margin: 0 under Body in my Style.css sheet. so i went to inspect element inside Google Chrome and saw this:
I was shocked because it automatically added 8 px in Margin around the body. So I took all the advice i was given in this thread and put the Margin: 0 ; under Body in my Style.css Sheet and it did this:
for Some reason it says Margin 0 in the inspect element under body but put a default white border there to the right....
I have explained this the best way possible. PLEASE CAN ANYONE HELP ME?!
ps. its doing this for all browsers so i know it not a chrome issue!

How can I print with black border around edge of image?

I'd like to add a black border around the edge of certain images I'm printing. I know it's fairly trivial in Lightroom, but I can't see where this option is in Aperture. Is this lacking in Aperture, or am I just missing it? Many thanks.
PS -- I'm aware there are some plug-ins that claim to do this, so if Aperture can't do this, please feel free to chime in with comments on the best plug-in for this task.

Aperture BorderFX 1.1
Thanks, Rich. That's a good plug-in, and does cover what I need (with lots of other features, too). The problem, though, is it requires an export of the image, which I then have to either print from another application, or reimport to Aperture to print. I was hoping to find something that will either just apply the border to the print job, or that would serve as more of an Edit With . . . type of plug-in than an Export plug-in, so I can keep everything in one place. Thanks again.

How do i output CMY reg marks over BLK master reg mark without the BLK being knocked out on BLK film

how do i output CMY reg marks only CMY films where they are over the BLK master reg mark without the BLK being knocked out on BLK film

You're evidently doing some kind of custom registration, but not explaining what it is.
First, what kind of printing are you doing that requires ten seps (CMYK and six spots)?
By definition, the Registration Swatch prints solid on all seps, both process and spot. But you talk of a CMY registration mark as if it is distinct and separate from K. Don't you also want your CMY seps to be registered not only to each other but also to the K?
You mention a "master" registration (as opposed to…?) needing to appear on the K sep. If a registration mark only appears on a single sep, what is it going to serve to register to; and how if there is no corresponding mark on the other sep(s)?
You seem to be under a not uncommon misconception that separations are somehow associated with Layers. They're not, unless you just want to organize your drawing that way for some reason.
If you want to create your own registration or fold or other printer marks which separate only to specific process inks, simply create and assign Swatches defined with 100% values of the desired component inks. There is no need to set these marks to overprint.
If you want to create your own marks which separate only to specific spot inks, those will need to involve object-level overprinting. You do not have to do that using multiple objects. You can assign multiple Strokes to a single path and set the overprint attribute on the Strokes individually.
It almost sounds like you are designing for screen printing on garments, and want to use registration marks. But because there is no "trim" region on the garment, you are trying to build the files in such a way that the marks end up being overprinted (therefore hidden) by subsequent inks. The default assumption in forums like this is always commercial offset printing. Otherwise, you should always state the printing method for which you are designing and describe the pertinent parameters.
Edit:
>"... this is a silk screen process with each colour applied over the other..."
We were typing at the same time. So it's as I suspected (or similar). Your description of what the printer wants is still confusing.

In Photoshop Elements 1, how do I put a frame/box around some type ?

I am doing a post card and I want to find out how to put a box around some text (i.e. a text box) and then be able to alter the thickness of the line.

Go to File>new>blank file. Enter the dimensions of the card, background white (or whatever suits you), resolution 300px/in
With the rectangular marquee tool, drag out a box of suitable size. You will see "marching ants" surrounding the rectangle.
Open a blank layer at the top in the layers palette
Go to Edit>Stroke(Outline) selection. Enter the width of the stroke (try 5 px), select the color, place it inside
Type the text to be within the confines of the text box with the type tool
N.B. The advantage to having the stroke on a separate layer is that if you don't like it, you can delete the layer and replace it

Why is Premiere Elements putting a black border around my video?

I am getting by OK with editing my videos in Premiere Elements 3.0 (I know, the shame). However, when I have finished editing, I need to output to a specified frame size to fit a video screen on my web site. All videos that have been edited for me by third parties have been sized at 640x360 pixels. When I use this frame size to render/output my videos, I have a wide black border outside the actual video. The flv file that is being created seems to have had a border added around the actual movie. Here is an example: http://www.incisor.tv/Incisortvarchive.ph p?mid=109
This doesn't happen when I output to a Quicktime, the video fills the frame as it should.
What am I doing wrong, please?

Hi guys,
Thanks for your responses. I am recording in SD, 16x9 using a Sony HVR-A1P camera. Up until now I have never tried to output to a specific frame size, as I've just been doing general stuff for my own personal use. However, on my web site, I have many, many movies which I have produced (and in some cases filmed), but which have all been edited for me by people that know what they are doing, and mostly in Final Cut. These have all been output to fit the specific video frame size that has been used on my web site, and that is a 640x360. There has never been an issue with black borders.
This movie (again, it's on my home page at www.incisor.tv) was the first time I have done everything myself. The Quicktime version is sized perfectly to the frame on my site, with no border, but the quality is very poor. Premiere Elements seems to be compressing too much, resulting in a poor quality file. Can I side-step the presets to create a less compressed, better quality (if bigger) file? If I can produce a better qualty QT file, this could be one solution to my problem, as many of the movies on my site are QTs.
The Flash file that I have created is great quality and streams beautifully, but has this border issue. Because I have never been worrying about outputing to specific frame sizes previously, I have never gotten into matching source footage with the project's preset. I've just been happy with the movies I have output. Now I have to output to a specific size, where are the parametres set? If I do a 'check properties' inside Premiere on the avi file that has come out of the camera, the image size is apparently 720x576, which is strange, because that is 4:3 rather than 16:9, which is how the movie was filmed.
This is probably quite easy to resolve, and I'll spend some more time looking at it now, but if anybody can help me short cut the process, that would be great.
Thanks, Vince

How to get rid of shadowed border around screen on MacBook Pro?

Just wondering if anyone knows how to get rid of this shadowed border on the screen of my macbook pro. I think my young daughter made it appear when she was striking various keys at random on my computer when I was not there. The cursor does not work when its over the shadow (i.e. will not depress the red 'x' button to exit a window and I have to drag window out from under shadow to close it).
It also appears in the middle of screen when airplay is turned on. (See screen shots below)
I have been unable to find any other discussion on this issue.
Above is screen normally and below is when airplay is turned on. Please help, thanks.

Hi rose_hedley,
I'm wondering if you have restarted your computer by now and if that helped.
That border is from Exposé with Show Desktop enabled (F11).

Need to temporarily clear the clutter? Press F11 and watch all your windows scamper away.

How do I disable the white border around my image in low light mode (L key)

this is distracting - In LR4 there was no border.

It was there in Lightroom 3. Removed in Lightroom 4. Then all us Black and White Photographers whined and they took it back out in LR 5 so we could see our image edges again. AFAIK there is no way to disable it.

How can I put a photo frame around my photo using PSE 9?

I can't find a way to do this. V8 seemed to have it.

If you don't find a frame to suit, you can make your own:
Open picture file in full edit and enhance as usual, and merge layers.
Go to Select>all
Open a blank layer at the top
Go to Edit>stroke outline selection, make stroke wide (25-35px), position inside, color does not matter
Open the effects palette, go to Layer style>Patterns>Wood>apply
In effects palette go to Bevels>scalloped edge bevel, or simple inner>apply
Double click the "f" in the layer with the stroke to bring up the style settings dialog, adjust as necessary
