Wetland Management Framework Module 6

Using the bookmarks Some of the documents that are hyperlinked are in PDF and others in MS Word. The PDF programme that I have used is PDF-XChange and a free PDF-XChange reader is available for download at The first thing to understand is that hyperlinks and bookmarks work differently in PDF and Word. PDF: The hyperlink takes you to the file. It is then necessary to open the bookmarks panel and select the required bookmark. This will take you to the page on which the required information is. It will not necessarily take you directly to the required place on the page. Word: The hyperlink will usually take you to the file, but may sometimes take you directly to the required paragraph. If it takes you to the file, then, on the > tab, in the > section click on > and this will bring a pop-up menu with the bookmarks in that file. Highlight the required bookmark and click on > and this will take you to the required heading of paragraph. The convention used: Hyperlinks in the Power Point files are given as a > between [square brackets]. In the projection mode (icon,,) left click on the hyperlinked term to change the cursor from the arrow to the hand. At this stage the hyperlinked address will appear next to the cursor. Left clicking on the hyperlinked term [that is within the square brackets] will take you to the document. From this point open the bookmarks as described above and left click on the required bookmark.
