Text Boundaries

Anonymous

In MS Word 365, "Text Boundaries" shows the boundaries of EVERY line.  I want it to show the text boundaries on the PAGE like it did in MS Word 2007.  How can I make this happen?

Thanks.

    Page borders will print unless you put them in the nonprinting area of the page, as determined by driver for the currently selected printer.

    Question I had was "How to show margin boundaries in Word 365 (2016)"

    Answer is:

    1. Go to Borders and Shading
    2. Select Page Border
    3. Click on dotted line style
    4. Apply to whole document

    Result: non-print border as found in older word versions

    I agree. Just one of several reasons I open Word 2013 only to test scenarios for users.

    Why wouldn't it be put back if so many people depended on using incorrectly?  Not having the boundary just throws the entire appearance off.  I always use text boundary full page and display formatting marks at all times.

    It's definitely a huge loss in Word 2013.
