When i generate my output, i have the pdfs generated and links created for them to be accessed.
I would like to have some sort of tag in the pdfs so that I can link to a specific section from a URL I have looked into doing this with named destinations but cant see whether it will work or not.
Some guidance would be useful please
linking to specific sections of the pdf

Hi Nick,
You can use anchors/named destinations in a PDF to link to specific locations.
inserted anywhere in the document can be linked to by using
You can use Insert > Hyperlink and Link to "Place in this Document" to easily insert these named destinations.

Ah sorry, I misunderstood, but this might still be possible by appending #mysection to your URL where mysection is the bookmark name.
