# How do I link to audio, video, websites, and pages?

You can create a link in your script to another page, or to outside content such as a website, cloud file, audio clip, or reference video.

|| 📝 NOTE: This video shows a slightly older user interface, but the instructions are still accurate.

||| ⚠️ NOTE: Hyperlinks currently do not [transfer](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/how-do-i-transfer-my-notes-1khpcd8/) from draft to draft. Look for this in a future update.

To create a link, **select the text** (touch and hold to display the selection pins and palette) and choose the **Create Link** icon.

||| ⚠️ NOTE: If the text already has an annotation on it, **tap / click and hold** to bring up the menu that includes Create Link. A quick tap/click opens the pop-up to edit annotations already in place.

On Mac, **highlight the link text**, then right-click / Control + click / two-finger trackpad touch and click **Create Link**:

##### Link to a script page

After choosing Create Link, a window lets you pick a page in the script to link to:

Touch a page to preview it. If it's the right one, touch **Done**. To show the page thumbnails again, touch the icon to the right of the text field under the **Link to Website** button.

##### Link to outside content

That window also has a **Link to Website** tab. Select it and the keyboard loads automatically, so you can type or paste a link to any website, cloud file, YouTube video, and more.

|| 📝 NOTE: You can't embed a video into the PDF itself — only hyperlink to it.

When the URL is entered, touch or click **Done**.

| ✅ TIP: A live link has a faint blue highlight, but you may want to add an annotation so it stands out — for example, a [Custom Stamp](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/how-do-i-use-stamps-and-create-custom-stamps-1nd6o3b/) or a rectangle around the linked text:

##### Show or hide the link highlight

The faint blue highlight on live links can be toggled on or off — handy if you'd rather your script look clean and unhighlighted, or if you want links to stand out more clearly.

1. Tap the **three-dot menu** (**⋯**) at the top-right of the screen and choose **Settings**;
2. Open the **General** tab;
3. Under **View Settings**, toggle **Highlight links** on or off.

|| 📝 NOTE: This setting only affects how live links are displayed on your script — it doesn't disable the links themselves. They'll still open when tapped.
