<para>&kword; has a complete set of tools to create and manage footnotes and endnotes.  When you assign a footnote, &kword; automatically 
places the footnote at the bottom of the correct page.  When you assign an endnote, the notation is located in a numbered list at the end of your text.
  If the footnote or endnote reference point is moved to a new page, the footnote automatically 
follows and is renumbered as needed (if the user desires). </para>
<para>&kword; also has the ability to separately manage endnotes and footnotes in the same document.</para>  
<para>You have the option of having &kword; control the numbering of your footnotes.  Alternatively, you can manually specify each footnote.</para>
<para>There are multiple automatic numbering schemes and your footnotes can be separated from the text with a dividing line. </para>
