Okay? We are going to modify that style, and we are going to modify the font. So to get to those behind-the-scenes Styles, we're going to go to this little arrow, and we're going to go down here to this Manage Styles button.Īnd then we want to look for the footnote reference style, so we are going to go ahead and choose alphabetical here, and then find it in here. It uses some behind-the-scenes Styles for that. Now, if you have used Word Styles before or even if you haven't, they are up here on the HOME tab, okay?Īnd you've got your Heading Styles up here.īut Word uses Styles to display this little footnote and to make this text look good down here in your notes pane, okay? You can do all that, and the way we do that is we use Word Styles. Maybe, you want to change the font or the size or the spacing. Maybe, you want that footnote number to be bigger, or perhaps you don't want to use superscript, or maybe, this text down here, you want it to look a little different. So, for example, we have a little superscript three here. Please click the check mark next to the response you believe best answers your question.You have inserted footnotes, but maybe you don't like the size of the number.

I know comparing LO 5 to such an old edition of MS-Office may be unfair, but I find LO gives me much more granular control and provides many more options than Office 2007. I am still working with MS-Office 2007 as well. I hope you find your exploration at least as satisfying as I have so far. This allows you a great deal of freedom to customize the Footer as you wish, and I suspect will be the option you prefer.Įnjoy! And from a MS-Office Power User who began working with LO a short time ago – WELCOME! (Since you are a MS-Word user, I suspect I don't have to elaborate on this step.)

Select the Borders tab and add a top border.The 'Paragraph Style: Footer' window will open. This allows you to quickly draw the line with more flexibility as to placement versus Option 1. To keep the line level, hold the Shift key as you do. Use your mouse to drag the cursor and draw a horizontal line.Select Insert > Shape > Line > Line (yes, you select Line again from a submenu).This should result in a slight waste of Footer space as a result of the blank line before the horizontal line, but it gets the job done. Press the Enter key to create a new line, then arrow up to the first line.

Let’s start with perhaps the least acceptable, and move to other, more acceptable options. It’s all about the learning curve isn’t it? (grin)Īctually, there are several ways to quickly do what you want.
