How can we help you?

You can add a link to a web page, email address, or file in the text of a document.

Insert a link to a web page or email address

MyOffice Text recognizes and makes active links that start with www, http, https, and email addresses.

Examples of the links:

www.website.ru

http://website.ru

https://website.com

mailto:user@domain.ru

user.name@domain.com

A link such as mailto:user@domain.ru may also contain a subject line, the text of the email, and email addresses for sending copy and blind copy. For example,
mailto:user@domain.ru?subject=This%20is%20the%20subject&cc=user2@domain.ru&body=This%20is%20the%20body.

To avoid errors when you click links, it is recommended to specify the protocol in the URL. For example, http://website.ru.

The link can be displayed in the document as follows:

URL: For example, http://www.website.ru.

Text: For example, link.
