Creating a hyperlink from scratch
A hyperlink is a text string, box, or line that points to a particular destination. To
create a hyperlink and a destination at the same time:
1
Select the range of text or item you want to use as the hyperlink.
Click the New Hyperlink button in the Hyperlinks palette.
Choose Style > Hyperlink > New.
Display the context menu for the selected text or box and choose Hyperlink.
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 and then choose a
page from the Page drop-down menu.
To link to a particular anchor in the same layout, choose Anchor and then choose
an anchor from the Anchor drop-down menu.
2
Click OK.
Showing links in the Hyperlinks palette
The Show buttons and drop-down menu in the Hyperlinks palette let you control
what is displayed in the palette's scroll list:
Click the Show Destinations button to show destinations.
Click the Show Anchors button to show anchors.
Click the Show Page Links button to show links to pages in this layout.
Choose Name to show items in the list by their names, or choose Link to show
items in the list by their URL.
Formatting hyperlinks
By default, hyperlinked text is underlined and colored according to the default colors
defined in the Preferences dialog box (Print Layout or Digital Layout > General).
You can override the default appearance of individual hyperlinks by selecting the
specific word(s) in the hyperlink and applying the desired formatting (color, size, and
font).
If you change the formatting of a paragraph that contains hyperlinked text, the
hyperlinks will reflect the font and font-size changes of the paragraph, while retaining
their default color and underlined text formatting.
