Hello friends,
I am new to the forum and have some problem about page bordering. I am also new to LaTeX but I love it. I am trying to have the attached page layout for every page. I know that I will use fancy headers, box package but could not manage to have it. Please see the attachment.
I really appreciate your help.
thanks
Heisenberg

The header can be done by fancyhdr or titleps with a table as basic structure. A complete page can be framed by the fancybox package.
