Add a border to a slide in Keynote on Mac
To add a border—such as a solid or dotted line—around a slide, you first add a square shape to the slide, then change the shape’s attributes so it behaves like a border. For example, you change the size of the shape, give it no fill (as opposed to a color fill) so that it doesn’t obscure other objects on the slide, and so on.
If you want several slides to use the same border, create a slide layout that includes the border.
