Add an Anchor

  1. Last updated
  2. Save as PDF

Objective

To manually add an anchor to a page to create a hyperlink that jumps directly to a section. 

Things to Consider

Headers, such as Heading 1 or Heading 2, can be used as sections automatically.  However, if the Header text is changed, the link will break. To avoid broken links from Header changes, we need to create a separate anchor point for the Header.
