Problem

Symptoms: The customer is choosing Footnote Options (Ctrl-F7, 1, 4) and selecting Letters (instead of Numbers). Then, the customer selects the new footnote number as 1. This should display as "a", but in Reveal Codes it displays as [New Ftn Num:241]. The customer would like to know why it displays this way instead of "a" or "1". Solutions: The problem occurs when a user inserts a [New Footnote Number 1] code after a Footnote Option code that changes the footnote number style. When you insert this code, a [Footnote Number 241] code shows up and the next footnote becomes number "gggggggggg" for example.

The workaround is to insert an "a" instead of a "1" when changing the new footnote number. This inserts a [Footnote Number 1] code and the following footnote becomes "1" or "a" depending your type of numbering.
