separate continuous footnote numbering on right and left pages
I need to have continuous footnote numbering starting from 1 for a text
appearing only on left-hand pages, and a separate sequence of continuous footnote numbering starting from 1 for the translation of the text on the facing pages. I am using Word 2002. |

By far the easiest way to approach this is to create two separate documents,
one for the text and one for the translation, and interleave them. -- Suzanne S.

Thank you. This is half way to a solution. But do you mean print out two
separate files of rectos and versos and send them to a publisher in that form (this is a book which has to go to a printer) or do you mean there is some way within Word by which you can interleave text pages from two separate files? If there is I should be glad to know how. Will Ryan "Suzanne S.

The former. The trick is to get the page numbering right (for that see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/Print2Pages.htm, which explains how to double-time numbers), but it is easier to do that than to try to repeat the note numbering (unless you restart on each page); also, I would imagine that you would need each half of the document to flow continuously from one page to the other. The main problem with this, related to the page numbering, is that you can't generate an automatic TOC from calculated page numbers. What line you take in this regard, however, depends a lot on whether you are sending the publisher camera-ready copy, a manuscript, or an electronic document from which the book can be printed directly. If the first, then your task is to get the pages to look the way they should by any means necessary. If the second, you let the publisher (and his typesetter) worry about all those details. If the last, then you're in a heap o' trouble! -- Suzanne S.
