How to Make Footnotes in Word Starter 2010

When you need to add extra information to your document without disrupting the main flow of text, footnotes come in handy. In Word Starter 2010, changing the formatting and layout of your footnotes is easy. By default, footnotes appear with a superscript number beside the text area where you want to note your source, followed by a corresponding number at the bottom of the page.

To insert a footnote, open your document in Word and go to the part of the text where you would like to add the footnote, preferably at the end of a sentence. You can then start typing out your footnote at the bottom of the page. This is where you can provide more in-depth information on a topic or reference additional sources.

In the ribbon section, go to the References tab and click on the large 'Insert Footnote' icon. This will allow you to insert a footnote at the desired location in your document. The text that a footnote belongs to has a corresponding number but as a superscript. It could be a reference, comment, or just additional information.

Footnotes are sentences placed at the bottom of a page that provide more in-depth information on a topic in a text. They can be used to add context, clarify complex ideas, or simply provide extra details without interrupting the main narrative. With Word Starter 2010, making footnotes is a straightforward process that can enhance your document's readability and credibility.
