Borders can be applied to an entire page, an entire document, or just certain sections of the document. A border can also be applied to paragraphs.

When you click the Page Borders button, a new dialogue box opens.

Using the Apply To dropdown, you can choose whether to apply these settings to the entire document or just certain pages or sections.
Now take a look in the lower right hand corner of the window where it says 'Options.' Click that for even more control over your border and shading options.
From here, you can choose the margins of your border, and whether or not to measure that from the edge of the page or the edge of the text. Click OK when you're finished.
