Reply To: Footnotes

Hoping for an update, since this thread is about 18 months old . . .

Has anybody found an external plugin that will allow footnotes to span columns? Or be inserted into tables? Like the original poster of this thread, I have a large book with hundreds of footnotes AND endnotes, so we can’t just put the footnotes at the end. The designer really wants a two-column layout with footnotes that span the columns. And, there are footnotes in the tables.

Surely, there must be people out there who run into this regularly on academic reports and have found a solution – does anyone know of a script or plugin that will help with this? The footnotes need to remain live, so faking it really is not a good solution.
