I'm writing a document which is exported to latex and then built into a
PDF where I might have 'Alcohol', just as an example, mentioned several
times in different level headings. Currently I'm using org links like
this [[*Alcohol][Alcohol]] but that only allows me to link to one
heading only.

I've tried using links like this
[[id:542d0880-c0fd-46d5-b75d-4cc6f5fa99cc][Alcohol]] and under the
heading that I'm linking to it says -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
*** Alcohol
:PROPERTIES:
:ID:     542d0880-c0fd-46d5-b75d-4cc6f5fa99cc  
:END:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But when exported it does not work.

So, how can I link to specific headings, preferably with a unique ID
please?

Thanks
Sharon.
