I wrote a 400-page book with lots of footnotes which currently reside at the end of each chapter. Now I need to go back and make the footnotes into live links so I can upload the book to be published on Amazon.
Right now the footnotes are simple digits at the end of the paragraph. I need to make them live links to the source reference.
The book has chapters. Right now, each chapter has its own footnotes, starting at “1”. I need to make them into endnotes, listed by chapter.
Do I have to start by creating sections for each chapter in my whole document? I want the numbering of each chapter’s footnote to start at #1.
EXAMPLE:
Radioactive cesium from the Fukushima nuclear plant disaster arrived on the shores of North America in months and had contaminated most of the commercial fish in the North Pacific ocean.(1) The University of Victoria, Canada sampled sockeye salmon from Okanagan Lake in British Columbia that tested positive for cesium as well, even though it is ‘upstream’ from and 300 kilometers away from the Salish Sea. Ce called the ‘Fukushima Isotope’ because its half-life is short and can be dated back to the nuclear meltdown in Japan.(2) Bald eagles of North America have the dubious honor of having the highest concentrations of PFOS in any animal. This is an amount higher than any measured in humans, even those who had worked in factories that made the PFOC chemicals. The eagles attained this level even though they have never cooked their fish in a non-stick frypan!(3)
