By default, Word leaves only one point of line spacing between your top border and the text, which can look a little crowded (<strong>Figure A<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"entry\" align=\"justify\">Figure A<\/h4>\n<p class=\"entry\" align=\"justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/i.techrepublic.com.com\/gallery\/214592-500-204.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"border\" title=\"border\" width=\"500\" height=\"204\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"entry\" align=\"justify\">You could click before the first word in the paragraph and press Enter, but that might not give you the exact spacing you want. Let&rsquo;s say, for example, you would like 6-point line spacing between the border and the paragraph. To achieve that formatting, follow these steps:<\/p>\n<div <a href=\"http:\/\/rivervet.com\/\">propecia mechanism<\/a>  class=&#8221;entry&#8221; align=&#8221;justify&#8221;> <\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Click anywhere in the paragraph.<\/li>\n<li>Go to Format | Borders And Shading. (In Word 2007, click the Borders tool drop-down arrow in the Paragraph group of the Home tab. Then, click Borders And Shading from the drop-down list.)<\/li>\n<li>Click the Options button on the Borders tab (<strong>Figure B<\/strong>).<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/div>\n<h4 align=\"justify\">Figure B<\/h4>\n<p align=\"justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/i.techrepublic.com.com\/gallery\/214593-500-388.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"border options\" title=\"border options\" width=\"500\" height=\"388\" \/><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">In the From Text section, click the up arrow of the Top box until 6 pt is displayed.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">Click OK twice (<strong>Figure C<\/strong>).<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 align=\"justify\">Figure C<\/h4>\n<p align=\"justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/i.techrepublic.com.com\/gallery\/214594-323-322.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"extra space\" title=\"extra space\" width=\"323\" height=\"322\" \/><br \/> Now your text will be situated six points below the top border, as shown in <strong>Figure D<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h4 align=\"justify\">Figure D<\/h4>\n<p align=\"justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/i.techrepublic.com.com\/gallery\/214595-500-129.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"revised border\" title=\"revised border\" width=\"500\" height=\"129\" \/><\/p>\n<!-- Social Bookmarks BEGIN -->\n<div class=\"social_bookmark\">\n<a title=\"Click me to see the sites.\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"$$('div.d579').each( function(e) { e.visualEffect('slide_down',{duration:2.5}) }); return false;\"><strong><em>Bookmark to:<\/em><\/strong><\/a>\n<br \/>\n<div class=\"d579\" style=\"overflow:hidden\">\n<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a style=\"font-size:90%;text-align: right; \" title=\"Click me to hide the sites.\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"$$('div.d579').each( function(e) { e.visualEffect('slide_up',{duration:0.5}) }); return false;\">Hide Sites<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- Social Bookmarks END -->\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">$$('div.d579').each( function(e) { e.visualEffect('slide_up',{duration:0.5}) }); <\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Date: August 12th, 2008 Author: Mary Ann Richardson If you build a little space between your borders and text, the results will be better looking and easier to read.
