Suppose a Google Doc has been published on the web. When someone clicks on the public web URL, he is directed to the top of the page. Is it possible to have a URL that points to a specific section of the Google Doc?

It is preferred that the URL link is for viewing and not editing.

Yes, it's possible by creating bookmarks

For this

  • Click onto the desired section and go on Insert -> Bookmark
  • The URL shown in the Url address bar will change to https://docs.google.com/document/d/XXX/edit#bookmark=id.yyy
  • This is the bookmark URL that you can use to jump directly to the correct section of the document
