converting footnotes to endnotes
I have a medium-sized document (about 40 pages) that has a fair number of
footnotes. I'd like to convert all those footnotes to endnotes. I've tried using the "insert" menu option and selecting "convert all footnotes to endnotes." I've also tried going to the footnotes and right-clicking to convert. The problem is that when I do either of these things, the document tries to repaginate itself, and it winds up creating thousands and thousands of pages. Really. I've had this happen using Word OS X on a Mac and Word 2003 on Win XP. The same thing happens in both cases. ...And it happens with multiple documents. On Win XP, the document gets up to about 7,000 pages long before it says that it can't go any further. If I try to hit "escape" during the pagination, it changes to "Normal" view and, of course, the end notes are not there. When I then change back to the "Print" layout, repagination starts again. Any suggestions? Thanks. |
