Page bordes of textmaker nx

Post by Văn Quang Nguyễn »

I am a Vietnamese but only know a little about the language in the software. I'm very confused that I don't see page borders in textmaker like word. I have to figure out how to outline the page in this case. Is the borders button in the Home tab the key to use? Hope you can show me a video tutorial

Unlike Microsoft Word, SoftMaker Office TextMaker does not have a built-in "Page Border" feature that draws a border around the edges of an entire page. The ribbon interface provides paragraph borders, table borders, and page setup options, but not a page-border command.

If your goal is a border around the whole page, here are the practical alternatives:

1. Draw a rectangle on the master page (best if you want the border on every page):
  • Go to View → Master Page.
  • Go to Insert → Rectangle (or another drawing shape).
  • Draw a rectangle just inside the page margins.
  • Set the Fill to None/Transparent and choose the desired Line color and thickness.
  • Return to View → Standard.
  • The border will appear on every page because it's on the master page.
2. Draw a rectangle on a single page
  • Insert a rectangle in the document itself instead of on the master page.
  • Format it with no fill and the desired outline.

Until this question, I did not realize that TextMaker does not offer a direct Page Border function/command. I think this is a feature that should be added in the next major version of TextMaker.
