In this Block or group, there are Hyperlink, Bookmark, and Cross-reference.

• A text enriched with Hyperlink is called hypertext. The hyperlink can connect two different documents and web addresses too. When clicking on a link we jump to another document. Apart from this, we can also connect hyperlinks into various sections in the same document. A link can be an image or any other Html element! The text that is linked is called anchor text. Hyperlinks can also link to email addresses.

• A Bookmark in Word serves the same purpose as the Bookmark we put in place in a book. The Bookmark marks a place that we want to find easily, and one that we want to return to when we need it. To add a Bookmark, we first mark the bookmark location in our document. After that, we can jump to a specific location or add links to it within our document. Bookmark work with hyperlinks.

• In Hyperlink, we used to add files or folders of external places, but in Cross-reference, we can only link the components (number item, heading, bookmark, footnote, endnotes, equation, figure table), etc. in the word document.

Comments

A Comment is a text in a document. To add comments in MS-file is one of the most useful features. 

In multi-user environments, it provides an easy and effective way to collaborate and comment on document drafts, and also help to make the document easier to understand by explaining what is happening. and it helps to prevent portions of a program from executing.

Even it also provides single users to find the feature for adding notes for reminders.

The image is an example of an HTML comment.

Header & Footer

Every document contains Header and Footer areas, but the areas are only visible when they contain information. 

Headers and Footers are located in the margin area at the top and bottom of the page/document. Both contain document information, such as the author, file name, date created, page numbering, and so on. It helps us to repeat this information at the top and bottom of every page. And this enables the reader to easily working on the document.

To enter information into a Header or Footer, we need to activate it. Headers and footers are only visible in Print Layout view and Print Preview.

Page Number option gives the number of pages to our document. We can choose from a variety of pre-defined number styles or select our format.

A drop cap is used in various books, media, newspaper articles, and webpages, documents, etc. A Drop Cap commonly creates a large capital letter at the beginning of a paragraph or section in our document. Drop caps can add style and grab a reader's attention to our page.
