How do you change the size or style of the numbers in a footno
I can't get anything by clicking on Format | Styles and Formatting, even
after following your last extra comment about checking the box in "Custom." All that happens is disappearance of the menu when I click on Styles and Formatting. I'm still hunting for even a "work around" to accomplish a return to default superscripted footnoting. How I came to having footnotes on the same line and displayed the same script size as my text, I wish I knew! -- Donnyork in So''Cal "garfield-n-odie" wrote: Modify the Footnote Reference style by clicking on Format | Styles and Formatting | Footnote Reference | Modify | Format | Font | check the "Superscript" box | OK | check the "Add to template" box | OK.

Select a footnote reference mark in the document body (not in the actual
footnote). When you open the Styles and Formatting task pane, you should see Footnote Reference as the "Formatting of selected text." If you click on that, an arrow will appear. Click on the arrow and choose Modify... In the Modify Style dialog, click on Format and choose Font. Check the box for Superscript, OK. Then check the box for "Add to template" in the Modify Style dialog and OK to close. If your footnote reference marks are not formatted with the Footnote Reference character style, then try applying it. You can force this style to appear in the Style dropdown by pressing Shift while you click the arrow beside the dropdown. -- Suzanne S.

I followed the procedure and it seemed to work. Thanks much; how complicated
it actually was! I don't quite get the last part: "...then try applying it. " As to "click the arrow beside the dropdown," which arrow and what dropdown?--Where (upper, lower, left, right?) on the screen? Very thankful to you! -- Donnyork in So''''Cal "Suzanne S.

The arrow beside the Style dropdown. The Styles list is usually on the left
end of the Formatting toolbar. -- Suzanne S.
