Adding space between border and image

[Diana]

I'm wanting to add borders to inserted pictures (from file), however, I want
to add some white space between an inserted image and the border. Is this
possible? I can't seem to find it.
Thanks. Diana

Hi Diana,

Insert the picture into a one cell table and use the borders of the table.

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Hope this helps

Use the cropping tool on the Picture toolbar in reverse, or, for greater
accuracy, go to the Picture tab of Format Picture and enter negative
measurements for each side under "Crop from." Then add your border (or line,
if the picture is wrapped).

Using table cells might do the trick and I like the idea of reverse
cropping. I hadn't thought of that.
Thank you both.
