+ <title>Anchors or Named Destinations</title>
+ <p>Use the fox:destination element to define "named destinations" inside a PDF document.
+These are useful as fragment identifiers, e.g. "http://server/document.pdf#anchor-name".
+fox:destination elements can be placed almost anywhere in the fo document, including a child of
+root, a block-level element, or an inline-level element.
+For the destination to actually work, it must correspond to an "id" attribute on some fo element
+within the document. In other words, the "id" attribute actually creates the "view" within the
+PDF document. The fox:destination simply gives that view an independent name.
