About embedded links

An embedded link is a block of text or an embedded picture that readers can click to jump to the link target. Link text is formatted according to readers' preferences.

To embed a link into your content:

1 Select the content (text or embedded picture) that you want to use as a link.

2 Choose Insert > Link.

3 Update the Format Link form:

Target URL	Identifies the object to open when the link is clicked (the target object). Type the target's URL. To create a mailto link, type mailto: plus the name of a conference or user as it appears in the Directory, or an email address.
Link to Marker	Links to the marker that you choose.
Link options	Link title	The name you want to give the link. This name will appear in the link's tooltip and in the list of links. If a link doesn't have a title, there is no tooltip for it, and the link's URL appears in the list of links.
	Window	Use Same Window	Opens the target in the same page as the current object.
		Use New Window	Opens the target in a separate window.
		Use Named Window	Opens the target in a separate window which you identify at "Target window name". Choose this if you don't want users to open a lot of windows. By opening links in one or a few named windows, you limit the number of windows opened by your links to just those windows. All links with the same window name will open their targets in the same window.
	Target window name	The name you want to give a named window.
