Hi Alison, There is absolutely a way to do this using named/jump to hypertext markers. First, the text TO which you want to jump needs a name. You can do it this way: Highlight the text that is being jumped and do Insert > Hypertext marker: Specify Named Destination. Then, after the newlink phrase, enter the name of the destination (No spaces or special characters other than an underscore): (Helpful hint: COPY this name BEFORE you click Apply in the Hypertext dialog box because it makes the next step easier.
Now, go back to the text that you are jumping FROM: Apply a character tag to make it apparent that the text is a link. (I have one called Link that makes the text blue and underlines it.) After applying the character tag, select the text and then Insert > Hypertext > Jump to Named Destination and after the gotolink phrase, enter the name of the destination EXACTLY as you entered it above, or if you copied it, then you can just paste in the name and then Apply the marker. Voila - the links will resolve as you want both in the source FM document and the final PDF. And I TOTALLY get it about age and heat waves. . . the last thing I need at my age is more heat. . .
