Word processor, how do I insert a hyperlink ?
Here's how to insert a hyperlink in the word processor:
- Place the cursor in the word-processing area where you wish to insert the hyperlink, and select Insert>Insert hyperlink from the contextual menu. Alternatively, in the sidebar, select the Insert option and click on the Hyperlink button.
- An area for entering hyperlink properties appears above the word processor area. This area contains the following items:
Type : hyperlink of type Text, Local picture or Web picture. If the type is a picture, you'll need to select the picture on disk (for a local picture) or enter its address (for a web picture).
Label (for a hyperlink of type Text) or Address (for a hyperlink of type Web picture)
Link to : hyperlink destination
World map icon : allows you to test the hyperlink and ensure that it leads to a valid address
Save the hyperlink with the √ button.
Notice
To modify a hyperlink, call up the contextual menu with a secondary click on the hyperlink and choose the Modify hyperlink command.
Entering a clickable hyperlink only makes sense if the final document is in digital format (PDF or e-mail, for example).
For Web Picture hyperlinks, the address should preferably be entered using your browser's Copy & Paste command, to avoid typos that would render the hyperlink unusable.
