You can edit your list of destinations in the Hyperlinks dialog box (Edit menu). Note
that as with colors, a project's destination list can contain destinations that are not
actually used in the project.
If you prefer to create hyperlinks by selecting something and then entering a URL, you
can still do so in QuarkXPress. However, you should be aware that when you do so,
you are creating a destination, and that destination will be added to the project's list
of destinations and listed in the Hyperlinks palette.
Anchors
An anchor is simply a marker that you have attached to an object somewhere in the
layout. You can attach anchors to the following:
• A word, character, or string in a raster or HTML text box or in text on a path
• A picture box
• A particular area in an image map
• A particular cell in a table
• An empty box
• A line
In QuarkXPress, anchor indicators look like this: or .
Creating a destination
A destination contains a URL that a hyperlink can point to. To create a destination:
1
Choose Window > Hyperlinks. The Hyperlinks palette displays.
• To specify the URL manually, choose URL, and then either type the URL in the
URL field or use the Select button to create a path to a particular file. (Keep in
mind that you must make sure the path is still valid in the exported HTML page.)
You can choose from four common protocols using the drop-down menu next
to the URL field.
• To link to a different page in the same layout, choose Page from the Type field
and then choose a page from the Page drop-down menu.
• To link to a particular anchor in the same layout, choose Anchor from the Type
field and then choose an anchor from the Anchor drop-down menu.

Click OK. (If you are adding multiple destinations, press Shift while you click OK, and
the New Hyperlink dialog box will remain open.)
