Can't See/print Out Right Border In Word

A friend of mine is having problems printing out the right border in a Word document. I took a look at it and see that it happens on my computer also. I open up a new Word document and go to File->Page Setup and change the orientation to Landscape. Then I go to the Layout tab and click on the Borders button. I choose the Box one and have the 4 borders there. I click OK and tried the Preview. The right border is not showing up in Print Preview. I tried changing all the margins to 0" and it still won't show it.

I have tried searching all over online today and couldn't find a solution to this. I'm using Word XP.

Thanks.

This is due to a special paraph setup inside this document, it will probably not be obvious to change that.
I see two ways :
1) Change the font size (put a very small font size, like 6 or 8). This should make it printable, but in small fonts.
2) copy the text you cant't print ; open a new document ; do a "special" paste, as "text only". This should replace the special page settings by standard ones, and the text should be printable.

If there isn't a ton of advanced formatting in the document can you create a new document and drop the content into it?

Doesn't seem to be any special formatting. For testing purposes, I opened up a new Word document and started adding borders to it. All four corners should be showing. But when I go into Print Preview, the right border is not showing.
