Knowing how to add a page border in Google Docs is handy when you want to make your document look more professional, break up walls of text to keep your readers' eyes from glazing over, or give it a bit of extra flair to make your document stand out from the pack.
Unfortunately, while Google Docs is a super convenient document creator, its simplicity means it lacks the kind of built-in options you'll find with full-featured word processors like Microsoft Word. This quickly becomes clear if you're looking to create a document with a border that wraps around the entire page — which isn't directly supported. Thankfully there are several workarounds that make it a breeze to spruce up your Google Doc with borders.
