Footnote Continuation Separator
Hi
When I add to my footnote text, instead of continuating onto the footnote area of the next page, my main body text get pushed onto the next page and my footnote area get larger. I thought Footnote Continuation Separator is inserted automatically? So how do I ensure my footnote continue onto the next page, instead of my main body text? Thanks |

Footnote Continuation Separator
This is by design. Your footnote will continue on the next page only when it
reaches the limit available on the first page, which happens when it reaches up to the place where the footnote is referenced in the text. Before that it will expand upward as far as possible to keep the entire note on the page where it is referenced. -- Suzanne S.

All you can do is make sure that the Footnote Text style is not formatted as
"Keep lines together." Beyond that, you have no control over Word's behavior. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "PL" wrote in message ... Hi Thanks for the reply.

You don't. As I explained, expanding upward is the way it is supposed to
work. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "PL" wrote in message ... Hi Thanks for the reply.

Footnote Continuation Separator
Are you saying that when your footnote continues to the next page you don't
get the Footnote Continuation Separator? If that's the case, swtich to Normal/Draft view and View | Footnotes or Show Notes. Click the arrow on the toolbar at the top of the footnote pane and select Footnote Continuation Separator. Then click Reset. -- Suzanne S.

Sorry
But my footnote keep continuing upwards onto the same page instead of the next page. How do I make my footnote continus onto the next page instead, so that the Footnote Continuation Separator will be inserted by default? Thanks "Suzanne S.

You cannot do what you are asking to do.
It is wrong. Footnotes are never broken to the next page when there is room to accommodate them on the page where they start.
