Default Footnotes too far down the page


Yes, the text boxes could be an issue. Is there no way to design the footer
without relying on them?

I believe it has something to do with the footer containing text boxes that
are outside the margin of the normal footer. I was able to correct the
issue
by formatting the footnotes to be "Below Text" instead of from the bottom.

This should not be happening. Make sure that the Footnote Text style is
not
formatted as "Keep with next" or "Keep lines together."

I have a pleading in Word 2003 where the footnotes are not spanning
pages
properly and are overlaying important information in the footer. Is
there
a
way for me to control how far down a footnote can go before it spans to
the
next page?
