I am writing a book in which I want to include annotated information at the
end, so I would like to have a section of end notes, but no footnote numbers
visible in the main text. How do I create footnotes, but hide the superscript
number in the main body of the book while still displaying the endnote text
at the end of the document?

Hi Mitch,

Simple - format the superscript number as hidden, and make sure 'hidden text'
is unchecked in Tools|Options|Print.

Cheers

Thanks for the response.

Is there a way to automatically format all of the superscript numbers as
"hidden text," rather than do it one-by-one? I'd also like to be able to
quickly go back and forth between hiding and revealing the superscript
numbers in the main text.

Since there won't be any point in having the endnotes numbered (if there are
no references in the text), you can modify the Endnote Reference style to be
Hidden. You can show/hide the references onscreen by toggling nonprinting
characters; you can toggle them for print either by printing/not printing
Hidden text (if that's all that's hidden) or by modifying the style.
