Inserting footnotes and endnotes

Insert a footnote or an endnote

You can add footnotes and endnotes to provide explanations or comments for certain sentences or terms used in your text, or make references to the sources.

1. Position the insertion point at the end of the text passage you want to add a footnote or endnote to.
2. Tap the icon at the top toolbar to open the new object insertion panel.
3. Switch to the Other tab.
4. Select the required option: Footnote or Endnote.

   The note mark (i.e. the superscript character that indicates a footnote or endnote) appears in the document text, and the insertion point moves to the bottom of the page (for footnotes) or the end of the document (for endnotes).

Repeat the above mentioned operations to add subsequent notes for other text passages in the document. The notes are numbered automatically.
