How to add borders to PDF documents?

You can add a border to a PDF document by adding a HTML element that has a fixed position and a border. However it should have no content! This will then be used on every page in your PDF. An example of which is shown below.

<html>
<head>
  <style type="text/css">
    #pageborder {
      position:fixed;
      left: 0;
      right: 0;
      top: 0;
      bottom: 0;
      border: 2px solid black;
    }
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <div id="pageborder">
  </div>
