Word for the web does not let you edit, delete, or include new borders to text.

If you have actually included borders around text in a document you developed with the Word desktop app, Word for the web will protect them.

A prospective workaround is to place a table which contains just one cell, then paste or type your text into that cell.

Improve your document’s pages using a wide variety of styles, settings, colors, and clip art to create an appealing border for your pages.
