I tried same, and with a 'Change All' it does work, sort of. Actually it adds the same punctuation mark again on each replace. So where before you had 5.  

(where '5' is the footnote reference marker)

you now have .5.

So another search is needed to weed out the added punctuation. Not very time-efficient this way.
