Footnotes and Paragraph Justification

Post by Latex_Beginner_Col »

Hello people, another beginner here. I'm writing a paper (just text, no maths involved) and I need a few things: (1) To put a footnote on the title of the paper, and (2) to justify my text.

For (1) I have done the following:

Code: Select all

\title{My_Title \footnotemark[1]}
\author{The_Author}
\date{The_Date}

\maketitle
	
\footnotetext[1]{Bla_bla_bla}
I do get the footnote right on the bottom of the page (I mean, i get the number), but in the title I just get an asterisk, and not the number i told the compiler to put. How can I solve this?

For (2) I know about justifying to the left or to the right, but i need to justify in the sense of MS Word, alignment at both sides. How can i do that?

I apreciate your help.
