About This Feature
Overview
Paragraph Link is an in-document navigation feature in WPS Office for Mac smart documents. It lets you copy a link to a specific paragraph so readers and collaborators can jump to that location more quickly in long documents.
Core tasks include:
- Create a paragraph link: copy a link from the paragraph hover toolbar.
- Use a paragraph link: click the link to jump to the target paragraph and view the highlight.
- Edit link text: change the displayed text while keeping the jump target.
This feature is useful for meeting notes, project plans, knowledge-base documents, and other long collaborative files.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | You can copy a paragraph link directly from the paragraph hover toolbar and click it later to jump to the target paragraph inside the document. | Word supports links to headings or bookmarks within the same document. | Google Docs supports internal jumps through bookmarks inside a document. | Notion lets you copy a link to a specific block and jump to that block. | Acrobat supports internal links to a specific location inside a PDF. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: the entry point is placed directly on the paragraph hover toolbar, so you can copy and paste a paragraph link quickly; the target paragraph is highlighted after the jump for easier confirmation. | Compared with WPS: internal navigation usually depends on headings or bookmarks as the destination. | Compared with WPS: internal navigation mainly depends on bookmarks rather than a direct copy-link entry for each regular paragraph. | Compared with WPS: block linking is similar in purpose, but the page and editing model differs from paragraph-based document editing. | Compared with WPS: the workflow is oriented more toward PDF editing than smart-document paragraph collaboration. |

Overall Conclusion
If you mainly need to reference a specific paragraph in a long smart document, WPS offers a more direct paragraph-level entry for copying and using links. Other products also support internal navigation, but they often rely on headings, bookmarks, blocks, or PDF page views instead of a paragraph hover action.
Use Cases
| No. | Scenario | Suitable For | Main Pain Point | How Paragraph Link Helps |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Long-document navigation | Editors and project members | Scrolling through a long file takes time | Copy links for key paragraphs and insert them where quick access is needed |
| 2 | Collaboration feedback | Team collaborators | It is hard to point to one exact paragraph during discussion | Share or paste a paragraph link to jump directly to the target text |
| 3 | Supplemental in-document indexing | Knowledge-base maintainers | Important paragraphs may not appear in the document outline | Create links for key paragraphs to add extra navigation paths |
| 4 | Review references | Reviewers and authors | Feedback can become disconnected from the original text location | Add a paragraph link in comments or notes to reduce back-and-forth searching |
| 5 | Cross-references inside one file | Document authors | Related explanations are spread across different sections | Use paragraph links to connect related content inside the same document |
