paragraph spacing in styles

Is it possible to add spacing to my Footnote style rather than doing it one footnote at a time?

  • Great! Thanks so much. Now can you tell me how to auto insert a space after the footnote number?

    Yes, you can add some Spacing Before (or Spacing After) to the Footnote Text style.

     

    If you are running Word for Windows, you can make use of the Apply Styles pane. Display the pane by pressing Ctrl+Shift+S, type in Footnote Text and click Modify. To access paragraph settings, click Format and then click Paragraph.

        Word adds a space character after the footnote number in the footnote area. Perhaps you are referring to something else, such as a tab or even a hanging indent?
