6.2 Footnotes and Endnotes:

Footnotes and endnotes explain, comment on, or provide references for text in a document.
Footnotes appear at the bottom, or the foot, of each page in a document, while endnotes
appear at the end of a section or document.

6.2.1. Insert Footnote/Endnote

To create Footnotes or Endnotes, follow these steps:
1. Place your cursor where you want to insert the footnote or endnote.
2. Click the References tab.
3. Click the Insert Footnote or Insert Endnote button.

A reference number is placed in the text, and a new footnote or endnote is created. Your text
cursor is moved to the footnote or endnote, so you can type out your reference.

4. Type your footnote or endnote.
5. Once you’ve added footnotes and/or endnotes, you can customize the way they appear

and behave. Click the Footnotes group dialog box launcher on the References tab. The
Footnote and Endnote dialog box contains options to control how footnotes and
endnotes appear. Choose a number format or custom symbol to mark footnotes or
endnotes, select a starting number, and control whether numbering restarts on every
page or new section.
