However, I have no 'UPDATE FIELD' in the contextual menu! Thanks in advance. How do I get these to renumber consecutively (now, number 4 and 5 are missing)? Help suggests to option click on the cross-reference marker and select 'UPDATE FIELD' in the contextual menu. I remember doing research in such books, with footnotes separated by chapters.Ĭorrespondingly, number 6 stayed as number 6. But, if the footnotes will be gathered at the end of the mss., finding a particular footnote can be difficult. My first question would be 'why?' If all footnotes will be at the bottom of the pages, then no problem.

Presumably, too, the person who did that had Track. Presumably at some stage a chunk of text was deleted, and that chunk had 30 footnotes attached to it. I am editing a document produced by somebody else.

My question has to do with Microsoft Word (2007, though I’m using the compatibility function). During editing, a paragraph with footnotes 4 and 5 was moved to the end of the document, where they became numbers 12 and 13. Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel I have an 8 page document with 11 footnotes.
