Footnotes and endnotes explain, comment on, or provide references for text in a document. Footnotes appear at the bottom, or the foot, of each page in a document, while endnotes appear at the end of a section or document. Other than that difference, they work the same way.

Footnotes and endnotes have two linked parts: the note reference mark (usually a number) and the corresponding footnote or endnote. Word automatically numbers footnote and endnote marks for you, so when you add, delete, or move notes, they are automatically renumbered.

Create Footnotes and Endnotes

1. Place your cursor where you want to insert the footnote or endnote.
2. Click the References tab.
3. Click the Insert Footnote or Insert Endnote button.

   A reference number is placed in the text, and a new footnote or endnote is created. Your text cursor is moved to the footnote or endnote, so you can type out your reference.

4. Type your footnote or endnote.

The footnote or endnote is inserted.

If you want a footer only on one page in Microsoft Word, the most versatile approach is to split the document into sections, with one section consisting of a single page. Add the footer onto that page and remove the 'Link to Previous' from it and the following section.

You can double-click a footnote/endnote’s number in the document’s text to jump to the note at the end of the page, section, or document. You can also double-click the footnote/endnote’s number at the end of the page, section, or document to jump directly to it in the text.

To convert a footnote to an endnote, right-click the footnote and select Convert to Endnote. To convert an endnote to a footnote, right-click it and select Convert to Footnote.
