Default 4-Sided Text Border

I want to print continuous text all around the outside border of my document .

The only way I can figure out how to do it is use 4 text boxes & line 'em up
as a border. Which I'll do if that's the only way . . .

Is there a way to make one continuous text border around a document?

Thanks so much!

No way in Publisher to make one continuous text box. Your way (4 text boxes)
will work. You could copy/paste special as a .png, this will allow cropping.

If I undertand your question correctly, can't you place the body of your
document into a text box and then 'wrap' your text?

I get the impression Icky wants the text to be be read left to right, top to
bottom, upside down right to left, bottom to topm. Wrapping text won't do
that. Four text boxes will do the trick - and I'd link them so that the text
flows from one box to the next.
