I am working with a relatively simple document but when I attempt to
insert a footnote in the document, it duplicates the footer and places
it beneath the paragraph containing the footnote superscript. For
example:

Paragraph with footnote1

duplicate footer

---------
1Footnote

actual footer

Can't figure out what's causing it or how to fix it. Duplicate footer
appears on screen and in print.

Thanks in advance for any insight,
Barbara
