In previous versions of Microsoft Word, you had to right click on the picture and choose the formatting options to add a border. In Word 2010, however, the process is quicker and much more simplified. To add a border to your picture, select it and then click Pictures Tools > Picture Styles > Picture Border. Select a colour from the swatches displayed and the border will be applied to the picture.
To remove a border previously added to a picture, click Pictures Tools > Picture Styles > Picture Border > No Outline.
You have the option of specifying different attributes for the picture border using the panel shown above, as follows:
- More Outline Colours - this option gives you the ability to use different colours than the theme ones shown in the initial panel
- Weight - use this to increase the border width
- Dashes - use this option to apply different styles of dots and dashes
