In Magellan outputs, keywords can be added to a topic to provide logical search terms or words that might not be included in the text. For example, a book contains a topic on assembling a piece of equipment. By adding relevant keywords to the topic, a search using assemble, installing, or setup can still find the appropriate topic even though these words have not been used in the procedure.
