Bookmarks are invisible placeholders that allow you to move easily to specified points in a large document.
Tip
Some other wordprocessors have bookmarks as part of their interface. If you are familiar with their use, you will
find that KWord functions in a similar manner.
It should be noted that bookmarks are attached to the
text
near the cursor, not the page location. If
the text moves forward or backward in the document (as text is inserted or deleted respectively), the bookmark moves with the text.
Creating a bookark is simple.
Place the cursor where you want the bookmark to be inserted. Select
->
from
the menubar.
A small dialog box will appear.
Type a short description of the bookmark location (i.e. Chapter 1, Appendix, Abstract, etc). This description will identify the
bookmark for you.
Click
OK
to create the bookmark.
Click
Cancel
to return to your document without creating a bookmark.
Jump to a previously created bookmark
To jump to a previously created bookmark, select
->
from
the menubar.
A small dialog will appear. Double click on the desired bookmark with the left mouse button. You will immediately be taken to
the location in the document that is attached to that bookmark.
Note
Alternatively, you can click once on the desired bookmark with the left mouse button, and then click on
OK
. This will function the same as double clicking on the bookmark.
To rename a bookmark, select
->
from
the menubar.
A small dialog will appear. Click on the desired bookmark with the left mouse button. Now click
Rename Bookmark
.
A small dialog will appear. Enter the new name for your bookmark. Click
OK
. The
bookmark is renamed immediately.
To delete a bookmark, select
->
from
the menubar.
A small dialog will appear. Click on the desired bookmark with the left mouse button.
Warning
Be sure you have selected the correct bookmark from the list before proceeding. KWord does not ask for
confirmation before deleting the selected bookmark.
Now click
Delete Bookmark
.
The bookmark is deleted immediately.
