Insert a dotted line with cutting scissors.

[Diane]

How do I insert a scissors cutting symbol with a dotted line to show people
where to cut off a section of a document?

There is a type of line art that has that. Let me open Word and try to find
it.

Okay - this is frustrating. I know how to do it with Publisher but doing it
with Word is different. It wants to limit adding the line art as a page or
section border but then you can't just grab the corner and make it fit
whatever you want. Maybe if it was surrounding a text box?

( Can you tell I use Publisher more often for doing "fancy stuff"? Much,
much easier...at least for me.)

You can also use a format, tab, tab leader with the dotted lines.

2 Steps: you're going to insert a scissors symbol and draw a line:
Scissors: In a text box: INSERT >> SYMBOL >> (select Wingdings as font and
pick your scissors and click on Insert button).

For line: draw a line and then right click, select EDIT AUTOSHAPE >> DASHED
LINES >> (and change weight)
