What is a Footnote ?

A footnote appears at the bottom of the page often with a separator line and a note reference mark.

These are notes of reference, explanation or comment. A word in the main text can be marked with a footnote or endnote reference mark.

Footnotes appear on the same page as the text they explain. Endnotes reside at the end of each chapter (Insert > Footnote, Next)

Number – 2 options / AutoNumber / Custom Mark

If you want to change the location of your footnotes / endnotes, number format, starting number, or numbering system (continuous, resart each section, restart each page) click on Options.

When you create a footnote, the footnote reference that appears at the insertion point has the built-in character style Footnote Reference applied.
