____________
Footnotes can be produced in one of two ways. They can be produced with
one command, the \footnote
command. They can also be produced with
two commands, the \footnotemark
and the \footnotetext
commands. See
the specific command for information on why you would use one over the
other.
\footnote[number]{text}
\footnote
command places the numbered footnote text at the
bottom of the current page. The optional argument, number, is used to
change the default footnote number. This command can only be used in
outer paragraph mode.
\footnotemark{number}
\footnotemark
command puts the footnote number in the text.
This command can be used in inner paragraph mode. The text of the
footnote is supplied by the \footnotetext
command.
This command can be used to produce several consecutive footnote markers referring to the same footnote by using
\footnotemark[\value{footnote}]after the first
\footnote
command.
\footnotetext[number]{text}
\footnotetext
command produces the text to be placed at the
bottom of the page. This command can come anywhere after the
\footnotemark
command. The \footnotetext
command must appear in
outer paragraph mode.
The optional argument, number, is used to change the default footnote number.
