Create a footnote or endnote continuation notice

If a footnote or endnote overflows onto the next page, you can create a continuation notice to let readers know that a footnote or endnote is continued on the next page.

1. Switch to normal view.
2. On the View menu, click Footnotes.

   If your document contains both footnotes and endnotes, a message appears. Click View footnote area or View endnote area, and then click OK.

3. In the note pane, click Footnote Continuation Notice or Endnote Continuation Notice.
4. In the note pane, type the text you want to use for the continuation notice— for example, type Endnotes continued on the next page.

Note  To view the continuation notice as it appears in the printed document, click Print Layout View on the horizontal scroll bar.
