footmisc

A range of footnote options

A collection of ways to change the typesetting of footnotes; provides means of changing the layout of the footnotes themselves (including setting them in ‘paragraphs’—`para` option), a way to number footnotes per page (`perpage` option), to make footnotes disappear when an argument moves (`stable` option) and to deal with multiple references to footnotes from the same place (`multiple` option). Also has a range of techniques for labelling footnotes with symbols rather than numbers.

Some of the functions of the package are covered by others. The `para` option is also provided by manyfoot and bigfoot, though those are both also portmanteau packages. (Don't be seduced by fnpara, whose implementation is improved by the present package.) The `perpage` option is also offered by footnpag and by the rather more general-purpose perpage
