Summary
Clients often cross-reference documents such as witness statements, expert reports and submissions to others on the platform. This essentially connects two documents to each other and one of the benefits of the platform allows you to do so by creating hyperlinks from one document to another, either automatically or manually.
The aim of the session is to understand how hyperlinks work and how they are created automatically and manually.
By the End
You should have been shown the following:
- The requirements for creating auto links in documents
- Hyperlink testing of a document and what it involves
The 'Auto Link' tool
- How the auto link tool works and how links can be created using it
- How to create a broken links report
Manual Links
- How links can be created manually within documents
Points to Note
- Auto-links are charged at £1 across most cases and manual links are charged at £3
- Manual links are less stable than automatic links in the event of the document being further amended and, as a result, we mainly encourage the use of automatic links
Following the Session
Ensure you can do the following:
- Successfully created links within a document using the auto-linking tool
- Generated a broken links report
- Successfully created manual links within a document
