Putting acknowledgement footnote

Post by LyxQuestions »

I know how to put footnotes in lyx.

When I put footnote, in the pdf, I see numbered superscript like 1,2,3..

But on the first page, it seems people put asterisk right next to author name or title (*) and footnote is generated.

How do you do that?

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Make the first page a proper title page with a title page Lyx inset/feature or \maketitle or \begin{titlepage} ... \end{titlepage}. Or use the \thanks command in author names, such as \author{First Name\thanks{a footnote}}.
