  Margins are the space between the text and edge of a document. By default, margins in Microsoft Word and Google Docs are set to one inch from the right, top, left, and bottom of the page. You may want to adjust the page margins if, for example, your company uses a logo at the top of the page. We can use page borders to customize documents with background colors and shading. You can apply a border to an entire page, a paragraph, or a section of text.
