Join Mike Rankin for an in-depth discussion in this video Importing footnotes, part of InDesign: Creating Long Documents.
- Now let's see how we can bring in footnotes…and endnotes with Microsoft Word text.…Here I have two word documents that I saved in .rtf format…and one has footnotes in them and the other has endnotes.…I want the footnotes to end up as dynamic InDesign footnotes…and I want the Microsoft Word endnotes…to somehow end up as dynamic endnotes…even though, officially, InDesign…doesn't have an endnotes feature.…So for the endnotes I'm gonna need…a little extra help from a script.…But first, let's work with the footnotes.…
I'll switch over to InDesign, and I created…this document to import the footnotes into.…So, let's look at the footnote options.…I'll choose type, document footnote options.…And here I've created and set the character style,…footnote reference, and the paragraph style, footnote text,…and these are to match the styles…that were used in Microsoft Word.…In the layout options, I've added a one pica minimum…space before the first footnote…and I don't want any rule above my footnotes,…so I turned rule on off, so I'll cancel out of here…
