Reply To: customised numbered list

If the document is to be read digitally, I would consider the flexibility of dynamic endnotes. A reader would be able to click the reference and go straight to the note.

You may save some time if you add Excel to the workflow.

1. Paste all of the endnotes into column A of a new excel document.

2. Add the following function to column B
=LEFT(A1, SEARCH(” “,A1)-1)

3. Add the following function to column C
=RIGHT(A1, LEN(A1) – SEARCH(” “,A1))

You now have the numbers and notes in separate cells similar to your InDesign layout and can cut and paste. Should save the time it would take to manually type the numbers and remove them from the notes column.

Good luck on your project.
