you to create a hyperlink to any page on any other notebook, or to a page
on a website.
• Tag allows you to tag the text with a specific icon to let you know what to do
with the note, or what type of information the note contains.

Toolbar. If the formatting you require is not available, you can find
additional commands on the Home tab of the Ribbon.
