How do I create jumps and links in SilverPlume Publisher (SPPub)?

Creating jumps and links in .txt files is different than creating them in .htm files.

TXT Files - use chevrons

Jump - When you click on a jump, it takes you to the designated area for that jump within the same document. Jumps in a text file are created with < >. The jump word and its destination word must be the same and enclosed in single chevrons < >. Example:

<Rule 32> This first jump is placed higher in the document.
<Rule 32> This destination marker is placed lower in the document.

Links - When a link is clicked, it links to an outside document. Links in a text file are created with double chevrons << >>. The link's file number (without the extension) is entered between the << >> Example:

<<FileNumber>> Not <<FileNumber.txt>>

Clicking on the link will take you to the document "FileNumber.txt" (even though the link does not contain the .txt file extension for the file name)

HTM Files - use brackets

JUMPS - When you click on a jump, it takes you to the designated area for that jump within the same document. Jumps in an .htm file are created with single brackets { }. The jump word and its destination word must be the same and enclosed in { }. Example:

{Rule 32} This first jump is placed higher in the document.
{Rule 32} This destination marker is placed lower in the document.

LINKS - When a link is clicked, it links to an outside document. Links in an .htm file are created with double brackets {{ }}. The link's file number (without the extension) is entered between the {{ }}. Example:

{{FileNumber}} ( Not: {{FileNumber.htm}} )

Clicking on the link will take you to the document "FileNumber.htm" (even though the link does not contain the .htm file extension for the file name).
