Formating pictures using borders and shading

Hi

I have been trying to put a line border around pictures in a large document using borders and shading option.

Some of the picture are fine but others have lines on only three sides despite clicking on the option for border on all sides. The side without a line in all case is the top of the picture.

Can you advise what I have missed?
Many Thanks

Eileen

RE: Formating pictures using borders and shading

Hi Eileen, thanks for your query. Try zooming in and out of the screen. The missing border may be due to the graphics card having rendering problems, if other pictures are fine this is almost certainly the case it's a very "hit and miss" effect. Print preview the document as well to see if the borders are appearing and if all else draw a frame around the picture manually using drawing tools.

Hope this helps,

Anthony

Word tip:

Making Word file sizes smaller

Word document file sizes can get rather large, particularly when a lot of graphics are inserted into a document.

You can significantly reduce the size of a Word file by opening the document, selecting all the contents (Ctrl + A), then hold down Ctrl + Shift + F9. Then resave the document (saving with a new filename will allow you to be able to compare the file size of this document with the original).
