Understand anchor navigation

In longer documents, navigating between important sections can become difficult.

Bookmarks and anchor links help readers jump directly to specific sections with a single click.

Plan your bookmark and link

In this example, a bookmark will be created on the Acceptance section.

An anchor link will then be added inside the Your Needs section to jump directly to it.

Navigate to the destination section

Open the section where you want users to jump when clicking the link.

In this guide, the destination section is the Acceptance page.
