Creating links

Links allow you to easily move from one paragraph or graphic to a related
portion of your document. If you want, you can create two links from one
part of a book to another and back again to allow readers to easily switch
between information.

When you create a link, you see a line indicator drawn around the linked text
or graphic. (You can also hide the line indicators by choosing Hide Indicators
from the Format menu.)

Newton PDA users reading your book will not see the indicator. You should
provide instructions or graphics that indicate a link. For example, you can
create a paragraph that says, “Tap here to see ...” and create a link to a table
somewhere else in the book. Readers using the Newton PDA can see the
linked information by tapping your instruction text.

If you add or delete information in the book—changing the page location of
linked information—the application maintains the correct link and still
displays the correct information.

If you later delete information in the book that contains a linked paragraph,
the link is broken.
