How to remove borders from an inscription in Word. How to make, adjust or remove an object and page frame in Word

The program for editing text documents Microsoft Office Word allows you to use a large selection of formatting tools: various fonts, tables, shapes, frames and colors. There is everything here to arrange the text the way you originally intended. However, due to the abundance of options and parameters, you can get confused and simply not find the right tool. This is especially true when you need to remove or modify an element from a document. If you want to erase a frame in Microsoft Office Word, then, first of all, you need to understand what kind of frame it is. There are text or page borders, and there are objects that are simply drawn directly in the program. In this article, you will learn how to distinguish between these options and how to remove a frame in Word.

How to remove a frame in Word: deleting a shape

The figures come in a variety of colors, shapes, and interior fills. If you see a curly frame, for example, a triangular one or in the form of an asterisk, then be sure that it is the “Shape” tool in front of you. It is drawn directly in Microsoft Office Word and deleted in it.

In the screenshot below, you see a blue shape with a dark blue border. By these colors it is easy to guess that this particular tool is in front of you. However, how to distinguish it if the fill of the shape is white and the border is black? Indeed, in this case, it is no different from the usual frame.

Follow this algorithm to understand what kind of tool you have in front of you:

• Click on the middle of the frame.
• If the object is selected along the contour, and the cursor has changed, then you have a figure in front of you.
• If the object is not selected, then you have a frame from the “Borders” tool.

Removing a shape is simple:

• After selecting the shape, select the text inside it so you don't lose it.

• Simultaneously press the CTRL+C keys on your keyboard.

• Now click on the border of the shape and press DELETE.
• The frame and shape will be removed.
• Paste text on the page by holding down CTRL + V at the same time.

Such a frame is rare, but it is still used if you want to fill the sheet with color inside it.

How to remove a frame in Word: removing a page border

Most frames are made with this tool. If it is not selected, then follow these instructions:

• Go to the Page Layout tab.

• Find the "Page Borders" section on the toolbar.

• You will see the corresponding window with the name “Borders and Shading”.
• Select "No" on the left side and click "OK".

The frame will now disappear.

How to remove a frame in Word: deleting a text border

When you see a frame near the text, and not the entire page, you can remove it in the same window.

• Go to the "Page Borders" field.

• Go to the "Border" tab, and in it select the "None" option. To apply this to a piece of text, adjust its amount in the "Apply to" line.
• Click "OK" to finish deleting the frame.

There are many ways to format and decorate a file in Microsoft Office Word: choose a font style and color, add a graphic or table, fill the background, and more. These include creating the edges of an element or page.

Technical documentation uses special text formatting

Borders in Word allow you to give parts of the document expressiveness or a more interesting appearance. A frame can be applied to a whole sheet, a paragraph of content, a picture, a graphic, a table cell. This function is used when creating methodological materials, manuals, reports, reports and other works. Lines can be set on all sides of an element or page, or only on those selected by the user. It can be given style and color stripes.

In addition, in some cases, the use of separator lines in the file is mandatory. For example, when preparing legal documents or works for an educational institution. Edges are used to separate part of the content from the rest, highlight tables or pictures and figures. In this case, it is important to know how to apply one or another edging, which is required by the conditions.

In total, there are two types of separator bars in Word:

• For page. Used to decorate a file or make it look like it conforms to some mandatory standard.
• For an element, i.e. a part of a sheet, this is everything else, including borders for content or images.

There are also reverse situations when it is necessary to remove edges as unnecessary or due to a Word display error. All of these actions will be discussed below.

Stripes are divided into two types: for an object on the page or for the page itself. When creating faces, you can set many options (from which sides and which element to display it, etc.) and properties (color, border style and thickness).

How to add edges to text, a table, a graphic, or a picture

This function is used to separate one or another element in a file and make it more expressive or simply decorate:

1. Select a piece of content, the contents of an entire table or specific cells, or a graphic to which you want to add a border.
2. Go to the "Border" tab.
3. Set the border type and edging lines, color, thickness and edge pattern in the appropriate options.
4. In the Sample area, you can use the menu to create custom stripes.
5. Activate the appropriate parameter in "Apply to" - with it you can set the ownership of the function.
6. Click OK.

How to add lines to a sheet

Using these lines, you can design one or more Word elements - for a decorative purpose or so that the content meets a certain standard. For this:

1. Go to the "Design" tab on the main panel.
2. In the Background area, click on Page Borders.
3. Go to the "Page" tab.
4. Set the type of frame and border stripe, color, thickness and pattern of the border in the appropriate options.
5. In the Sample area, you can use the menu to create custom edges.
6. Assign a suitable parameter in "Apply to" - it can be used to set the membership of the function.
7. Click OK.

In the "Apply to" area (drop-down menu and the "Options" button), you can make settings:

• In order to indicate the ownership of the faces on the sheet, assign the appropriate option by clicking on the arrow.
• To specify the exact location of the faces on the sheet, click "Options" and activate the desired one.

The four functions of the "Apply to" drop-down menu are:

1. For the entire document. If it contains more than 1 sheet, and the edges need to be applied to everything, then this option allows you to do everything in one click. Faces will appear on all sheets of the file.
2. "For one section." If the document is divided into sections, then you can use lines for one of them.
3. "For this section" (margins used only on the first sheet) is the way to create a title page.
4. “For this section” (on the contrary, the border will appear on all pages except the first one) - this is important for design according to one or another standard, while the first page can be made a title page with a different splash screen or with the author’s signature and heading.

How to add edges to a graphic element

There is a second way to make a border around the insert:

1. Click on the location in the file where you want to place the edged object.
2. Click "Insert" - "Illustrations" - "Shapes", create a "New Canvas".
3. In the new window, select the color, style and thickness of the line.
4. Add graphic elements to the canvas.

How to change border options and properties

If you are working with text that was created by another author, then it may be necessary to correct the lines set by him in the file. As with creation, the edges in this case are divided into 2 types - the edges of the object and the sheet.

Change the border of an object

To edit the edges of a piece of text, figure, table, or graph:

1. Select a fragment of the file.
2. Go to the tab "Design" - "Page Borders" - "Border".
3. Set options.
4. Save your changes.

Changing the edges of a sheet

To edit the edges of an entire sheet:

1. Select a fragment of the file.
2. Go to the tab "Design" - "Page Borders" - "Page".
3. Adjust the settings.
4. Save your changes.

Custom borders in Word

In the Word program, you can create unusual edges of a passage or sheet:

1. Select the file element for which you will create a function.
2. Go to "Insert" - "Shapes" and find the appropriate option.
3. A pointer will appear that will determine where to insert the shape - click in the required place (then it can be modified by clicking "Shape Format" in the context menu).
4. It is impossible to make a non-standard frame around a document fragment; for this, you must first create a shape, then right-click on it and select "Add Text".

Frame according to a certain standard

Some users may need to issue a Word document in accordance with a certain standard, for example, the State Standard, for creating texts. For this, a certain type of edging is used, which plays an important role. You can do it yourself, but often it is too complicated and long, and there is also a risk of making a mistake. The best option would be to download the border or the document in which it is applied. To install it in your document:

1. Open the file that uses the desired separator pattern.
2. Click on the line with the right mouse button, select "Copy" in the context menu.
3. Open the document to which you want to copy it.
4. From the toolbar, choose Insert - Header, then Blank.
5. If necessary, edit the separator bars.
6. Set where it should be.
7. Click "OK" and it will appear on a sheet (or several) of your document.

The boundaries, which are adopted by the State Standard on the design of the text, must be used when creating official documents, including those related to the exact sciences. In addition, dividing strips of one kind or another will be required to complete a thesis on drawing.

How to Remove Edges in Word

In some cases, separator bars in a text document need to be removed if:

• an additional object appeared with callouts-arrows and the inscriptions "Formatted" or "Deleted" - an error occurred and it is necessary to replace the edges;
• you made a frame by mistake in the place where it is not required;
• you are working with a document that was created by another author, if he made mistakes in the design of text and objects or created extra lines.

We have already written about how to add a beautiful frame to a MS Word document and how to change it if necessary. In this article, we will talk about a completely opposite task, namely, how to remove a frame in Word.

Before you start removing a frame from a document, you need to understand what it is. In addition to the template frame located along the sheet outline, frames can frame one paragraph of text, be in the header or footer area, or be presented as the outer border of the table.

Remove a frame in Word created using standard program tools “Borders and Shading”, you can through the same menu.

2. In the window that opens, in the section "Type" select option "No" instead of "Frame" previously installed there.

3. The frame will disappear.

Sometimes the frame is not located along the outline of the entire sheet, but only around one or more paragraphs. You can remove the frame in Word around the text in the same way as a regular template frame added using the “Borders and Shading”.

1. Select the text in the frame and in the tab "Design" press the button “Page Borders”.

2. In the window “Borders and Shading” go to tab "Border".

3. Select type "No", and in the section “apply to” select "paragraph".

4. The frame around the piece of text will disappear.

Removing frames placed in headers and footers

Some template frames can be placed not only along the borders of the sheet, but also in the header area. To remove such a frame, follow the steps below.

1. Enter the header editing mode by double-clicking on its area.

2. Remove header and footer content by selecting the appropriate item in the tab "Constructor", group “Headers and footers”.

3. Close the mode of working with headers and footers by clicking on the corresponding button.

Removing a frame added as an object

In some cases, a frame can be added to a text document not through the menu “Borders and Shading”, but as an object or shape. To remove such a frame, simply click on it, opening the object mode, and press the key "Delete".
