// A section's PageSetup object has "BorderSurroundsHeader" and "BorderSurroundsFooter" flags that determine
// whether a page border surrounds the main body text, also includes the header or footer, respectively.
// Set the "BorderSurroundsHeader" flag to "true" to surround the header with our border,
// and then set the "BorderSurroundsFooter" flag to leave the footer outside of the border.
pageSetup.BorderSurroundsHeader = true;
pageSetup.BorderSurroundsFooter = false;

doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "PageSetup.PageBorder.docx");
