Reply To: Painful footnote styling

Thank you so much Jongware. I'll certainly give this script a go. When the Word doc is Placed and the styles mapped, InD 'knows' the footnotes are footnotes because if I click on a footnote, the ParaStyle highlights 'Footnotes+”. In Type>Footnote Options I've set the style to 'Footnotes' — but somehow that little plus sign always shoes in the ParaStyles panel. I've tried the Find/Change Find Format (footnotes) to Change Format (footnotes) just in case it applies the style by force, so to speak, but nothing happens.

So I'll run the script. Thank you very much for your generosity.
