Creating Links to Internal Section of a Paper
How to create a link in a paper to an internal section or a header in the same paper document?
Hi rahulr, thanks for posting! Here are a few ways to link to content in your doc:
1. Link to a header from the table of contents. This could be an H1 and H2. To do this, hover your mouse on the left side of the screen so that the table of contents pops out, right click on a header, select "Copy link address" from the dropdown menu and, then paste the URL in a separate tab on your browser.
2. Link to a header from within the doc. You can do this by clicking directly on a header within the doc, then clicking the "Bookmark" icon that appears to the left.
3. Link to a comment. To do this, click on a comment to expand it, click on the timestamp (e.g. "2 hours ago"), then copy the URL from your browser.
Hope this helps! I think these are all the ways to link to content within a Paper doc right now. 🙂

Hi
Headers are automatically linked to by the little pop over menu - go to the left hand side of the paper doc and mouse over the little stripes there, you will see all your header links.

Ok Thanks. What about linking to another section (Non-Header) in the same paper?

what exactly do you use the internal linking for?
it's a lot better to have important info on one page
or to just search for them
