Document Production – Bookmarks & Hyperlinks

In this section you’ll learn how to add and delete bookmarks and hyperlinks, just like adding or removing sticky notes and links in a digital notebook. 📚🔗

What are Bookmarks?

Bookmarks are like sticky notes you place on a specific page or paragraph in a document. They let you jump straight to that spot without scrolling. Think of them as “quick‑access pins” in your digital book. 🗂️

Adding Bookmarks

1. Place your cursor on the paragraph you want to bookmark.
2. Go to Insert ➜ Bookmark (or press Ctrl + Shift + B).
3. Type a name for the bookmark (no spaces) and click Add.
4. You can now jump to it by selecting the bookmark name from the list.

Deleting Bookmarks

1. Open the Bookmark dialog again (Insert ➜ Bookmark).
2. Select the bookmark you want to remove from the list.
3. Click Delete (or press Ctrl + Shift + D).
4. Confirm the deletion if prompted.

What are Hyperlinks?

Hyperlinks are like doors that open a new web page or another part of the same document. They’re the digital version of a “click here” sign. 🚪➡️🌐

Adding Hyperlinks

1. Highlight the text or image you want to turn into a link.
2. Press Ctrl + K or go to Insert ➜ Hyperlink.
3. Enter the URL (e.g., https://www.example.com) or choose a document location.
4. Click OK and the text will become a clickable link.

Deleting Hyperlinks

1. Select the linked text.
2. Right‑click and choose Remove Hyperlink (or press Ctrl + Shift + K).
3. The text reverts to normal, but the link is gone.
