Footnotes

Footnote syntax commonly used in academic literature

Footnote Syntax

You can add comments and references without cluttering the main text. When you create footnotes:

  • Superscript numbers with footnotes appear where you add footnote references
  • Readers can click the link to jump to the footnote content at the bottom of the page

To create footnotes, add symbols and numbers in square brackets []

  • The identifier can be numbers and words, but cannot contain spaces and tabs
  • The identifier only associates the footnote reference with the footnote itself
  • Footnotes are numbered in order
  • Footnote content is unique ^Note and ^note are different footnotes
This is a footnote[^1],use to explain the text.
[^1]: This is the footnote content.

Rendered output:

This is a footnote1,use to explain the text.

Best Practices for Footnotes

Use Descriptive Identifiers

Use descriptive identifiers to make footnotes easier to understand and maintain.

This is a footnote[^important-note],use to explain the text.
[^important-note]: This is the footnote content.

Multiple Footnotes

You can add multiple footnotes in the same document.

This is a footnote[^1],use to explain the text.
This is another footnote[^2],use to explain the text.
[^1]: This is the first footnote content.
[^2]: This is the second footnote content.

Rendered output:

This is a footnote1,use to explain the text. This is another footnote2,use to explain the text.
