The Link to Highlight feature will help you to easily highlight a section of a page and generate a link for sharing with your coworkers. The other person coming to that page through your link will see the exact highlighted section that you want him to see.
To generate and copy the link, open a webpage on your Google Chrome browser. Select a few lines on that page, and right-click on it. From the context menu, select "Copy link to highlight". This will create a link to this section and copy it to your clipboard which you can share with the person who needs special attention.
Once you open the link in a browser, it will automatically scroll down to that section and highlight the text that you have selected.
