Hyperlinks panel overview
You can create hyperlinks so that when you export to Adobe PDF or SWF in InDesign, a viewer can click a link to jump to other locations in the
same document, to other documents, or to websites. Hyperlinks you export to PDF or SWF in InCopy are not active.
A source is hyperlinked text or a hyperlinked graphic. A destination is the URL, file, email address, page, text anchor, or shared destination to
which a hyperlink jumps. A source can jump to only one destination, but any number of sources can jump to the same destination.
Note: If you want the source text to be generated from the destination text, insert a cross-reference instead of adding a hyperlink. See Cross-
references.
