Footnotes and Endnotes
Use footnotes and/or endnotes to refer readers to reference notes. Nisus Writer Express

appear at the bottom “foot” of the page on which you insert them. Endnotes appear at the end of
the document.

1. Put the insertion point where you want the footnote number to appear.
2. Choose Footnote or Endnote from the Insert menu.

If you work in Draft View or Full Screen view and choose Footnote or Endnote from the Insert menu,
Nisus Writer Express automatically switches your view to Page View and displays your insertion point
in the notes area of your document, ready to enter the note text.
When you point to a footnote or endnote marker in your text Nisus Writer Express displays a tooltip
with the contents of the footnote or endnote text.

marker location in the document.
