Editing How to Add Borders in InDesign (section)



To add borders in InDesign, follow these steps:

1. Open your InDesign document and select the object you want to add a border to. This could be a text box, image, or shape.

2. Go to the "Stroke" panel, which can be found by selecting "Window" from the top menu and then choosing "Stroke" from the drop-down menu.

3. In the Stroke panel, you can choose the weight of the border by using the drop-down menu or typing in a specific value in the weight field.

4. You can also choose the color of the border by clicking on the "Color" box and selecting a color from the swatches or using the color picker.

5. Next, choose the type of border you want to add. You can choose from solid, dashed, dotted, or other options by using the "Type" drop-down menu.

6. Finally, you can adjust the position of the border relative to the object by using the "Align" drop-down menu. This allows you to choose whether the border is aligned to the inside, outside, or center of the object.

7. Once you've made all your selections, click "OK" to apply the border to your object.

8. If you want to apply the same border to multiple objects, you can use the "Eyedropper" tool to copy the border settings from one object and apply them to another.

That's it! You've successfully added a border to your InDesign object.
