About This Feature
Overview
Bookmarks let you mark a specific location or selection in a document so you can return to it quickly later. In WPS Writer, you can insert a bookmark, go to an existing bookmark, or delete a bookmark you no longer need.
Core tasks include:
- Insert a bookmark: Create a recognizable marker for the current cursor position or selected content.
- Go to a bookmark: Jump to a target location from the bookmark list.
- Delete a bookmark: Remove outdated or unnecessary location markers.
This feature is useful for long-document editing, section review, content organization before cross-referencing, and marking key positions before collaboration.

| Capability Summary | In WPS Writer, you can insert, go to, and delete bookmarks for quick navigation inside a document. | Word supports adding, jumping to, and deleting bookmarks, and it also supports linking to bookmarked locations. | Google Docs supports bookmarks and lets users link to bookmarks within a document. | In Notion, bookmarks are mainly web bookmark blocks for pasted URLs rather than traditional in-document location markers. | Acrobat supports bookmarks in PDFs for navigation to a page, view, or destination in a PDF. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: The bookmark entry is grouped under the Insert menu for direct document navigation tasks, and the listed bookmark actions are available without membership. | Compared with WPS: Word also supports hyperlinks to bookmarks, which is helpful for more complex cross-reference workflows. | Compared with WPS: Google Docs bookmarks are centered on online documents and sharing links inside a cloud-based workflow. | Compared with WPS: Notion bookmarks are designed more for web content display and page organization than for navigating inside a long text document. | Compared with WPS: Acrobat bookmarks are designed for PDF navigation and distribution scenarios rather than regular word-processing workflows. |
