Key topics covered in this course include how to create and insert custom information in Word's headers and footers; how to save and reuse a header, and insert it into other documents; and how to customize paragraph outlines and the color, style, thickness, and locations of borders. Observe how to use the border and fill tools to apply colors to your document and design interesting borders to make your document more attractive. Next, learn the various ways you can change the page color and surrounded text with a border-with the paragraph tool set or the Design tab.
