Text Formatting ⇒ Formating Footnotes

[gwada74]

Hi,
I have a really hard trying to get my footnotes without left blank before the fnmark. I need this :
1. blablablablablabl
bkbakbkabkakka


Is someone can help me on this, it drives me crazy. The document class I am using is Book.

Thanks in advance.

where 1.5em is the width of the box in which footnote mark is placed, and r means it is raggedleft.

Or just use the footmisc package.

Code: Select all

\usepackage[bottom,flushmargin,hang,multiple]{footmisc}

This is not working, my command are not highlight as error and are not taken into account. I am completely lost.

This is I think my best solution to obtain what I want, but written like this the footnotes are in the principal text and not at the bottom of the page. What should I add to my code to specify the text at the bottom of my page ?

[meho_r]

Let's start from the beginning: what exactly do you want to achieve?

1. Do you want numbers in footnotes to be normal, not superscript, followed by a period?

2. Do you want numbers not to be indented (as well as the text of the footnote in general)?

This is what I concluded from your first post and the code I provided does exactly that (see the output in the attachment). If you want something else, please state that clearly and we'll try to find a solution.

[gwada74]

Hi,

Your example shows almost what I am looking for. Except that I would like the footnote text lines that are under the footnotemark to be align with the first footnotetext line. Is that clear ?

Concerning the footenote mark position this is exactly what I want.

[meho_r]

Well, in that case localghost's suggestion is exactly the solution you're looking for.

In case that superscript numbers in footnotes pose a problem, you can try something like this:

It is working in your example and this is what I am looking for.
But with my code it is not working, I am using the class book.
Is this can be a problem ? This drives me really really crazy.

[meho_r]

Can you create a Minimal Working Example (MWE) from that file of yours? The code works for me with book class too.
