atw: Re: Setting a coloured border in a flyer

Oh, BTW printers always have a border - even many of the so-called
borderless printers. You cant get borderless printing out of Word documents
either - impossible. But you can get very close, to around 12.4 or 12.5
points or a little more. Adobe also gets pretty close too.

Thanks for these suggestions, but I will not be printing the flyers 
myself.  I was going to email them to each location and then the Admin 
staff will print them and put them up.  If I have to send hard copies it 
will take much longer to distribute the communications.  But I suppose 
if I don't find another way, that is what I will have to do. Ilana
