I have set up my cross-references/bookmarks throughout my Word Document. After clicking on the cross-reference it takes me to the bookmark. How do I get back to the page where I was originally? The “Go to” command is cumbersome.

Thanks,
Angie

How to include the customized styles for cross reference?

Separate Lists for: Table of Figures / Table of Tables, etc.:

Select the link (Shft+Left arrow), press Shift+F9.
Copy this code and simply replace ‘Figure’ with ‘Table’.
e.g. { TOC \h \z \c “Figure” } or { TOC \h \z \c “Table” }

Select this last code and press F9.

Note: place this code below the last line of text on the page.

To place the reference at the bottom of a page.

Insert Tab; Quick Parts on the Text area; Field; Advanced; Options;
Select the \y for the vertical position on the page.
Type: 750 (this number could vary)

e.g. ADVANCE \y 750

When the field is inserted it automatically places brackets either side.
Experiment with the number of points required.

Examples: { ADVANCE \y 750 }

To see this code, select the paragraph and press Shft+F9.
To update and see results, select the code and press F9.

Turn off Ctrl+click

Office Button
Word Options
Advanced
Editing options: Turn this option off (deselect the checkbox).
When the document is converted to PDF,one click on the link is all that is required.

Hi,
I am writing a technical manual and created a few cross-references from the numbered items. If I use “Ctrl+cick” in document it navigates me to the designated section, however if I create PDF or go to print preview it does not work.
How can I make sure that the cross-reference is clickable in PDF?
Also:
Is there a way to make the links in my document accessible via one ‘click’ instead of ‘Ctrl+click’?
Is there any way that cross-reference is automatically visualized (maybe a different color)?

Many thanks
Denis

Hi,
I am writing a technical document and am would like to have a link at the bottom of every page so users can jump back to the table of contents. I’ve tried putting the cross-reference inside of the footer but when I do so I cannot use the link unless I am ‘in’ the footer. Is there a way to get around this?
Also, is there a way to make the links in my document accessible via one ‘click’ instead of ‘Ctrl+click’?
Thank you,
Jacob

Hi,

I am just trying to make a seperate list of Figures and list of Tables, but I do not know how to seperate the two and have all my figure captions go to my list of figures and my table captions go to my list of tables. At the moment I can either have a list of Tables, that lists all my figures and tables, or I can have a list of figures that again lists all my tables and figures. Can you please help!!!!

Thanks
Clarisse

I have written a large technical Manual (Word 2007) that is full of cross-references to headings, tables, and figures within the document itself. I also have a separate document containing Appendices that are references for the Manual. Is there a way to add cross-references to the Appendices that reference points in the Manual; e.g., “Refer to Section x.x.x”, where “x.x.x” is automatically updated (when the document is updated) as the Manual reference points change?
