Background: Lines outside margins
I would like to arrange a background of two single, full page height
vertical red lines, one about 2 mm outside each margin, repeating every
page.
I am sure it should be easy, but I would be glad of some help, please.
With kind regards,
Geoffrey Hartwell

There is always a way to tweak things one way you can achieve this to
format the page Select the Border tab and set the Left and Right border
with the desire colour.
Set the Left and Right spacing to content to the desired value which reduce
the content space for text.
Now adjust the margins by the value set above so that the content space is
restored to the original value
