Creating Footnotes and Endnotes

Word makes it so easy to add footnotes and/or endnotes to a document! Endnotes are just like footnotes, except that endnotes appear all together at the end of a document (or the end of a section) instead of at the foot of each page. Word will number the footnotes for you in one number series and the endnotes in a different number series or format.

Whenever you add or delete a footnote or an endnote, Word automatically renumbers the appropriate series. For a footnote, Word also figures out how much space is required at the bottom of the page for the footnote, and, when a footnote is too long for the page, Word automatically continues it on the next page.

Insert the Footnote or Endnote

  1. In Page Layout view, with the insertion point located where you want the footnote or endnote reference mark to appear in your document, click the Insert Footnote button on the References tab for a footnote or the Insert Endnote button for an endnote.

  2. Type your footnote or endnote text.
