Creating Image Links in Word
You can create image links that allow users who click the image to link to content in another location. For example, if you include your company logo in a source document, you can define a link for the logo so that when users click the logo, they link to your company home page.
The following procedure provides an example of how to create an image link in Microsoft Word source documents using Microsoft Word 2003. Steps for creating an image link in Microsoft Word may be different in other versions of Microsoft Word.
To create an image link in a Microsoft Word source document
1. In your Microsoft Word source document, insert the image for which you want to create an image link. For more information, see

2. Select the image for which you want to create an image link.
3. On the Insert menu, click Hyperlink.
Note: If Microsoft Word does not display
Hyperlink on the
