<p>In the <ahref="https://www.onlyoffice.com/document-editor.aspx"target="_blank"onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)"><b>Document Editor</b></a>, cross-references are used to create links leading to other parts of the same document, e.g. headings or objects such as charts or tables. Such references appear in the form of a hyperlink.</p>
<li>The <b>Reference type</b> drop-down menu specifies the item you wish to refer to, i.e. a numbered item (set by default), <em>a heading, a bookmark, a footnote, an endnote, an equation, a figure,</em> and <em>a table</em>. Choose the required item type.</li>
<li>
The <b>Insert reference to</b> drop-down menu specifies the text or numeric value of a reference you want to insert depending on the item you chose in the <b>Reference type</b> menu. For example, if you chose the <b>Heading</b> option, you may specify the following contents: <em>Heading text, Page number, Heading number, Heading number (no context), Heading number (full context), Above/below</em>.
