They are located in a separate part of the paper. Moreover, the source can be easily located by simply looking at the bottom of the page.Īn Endnote is located at the end of a paper of a document. It does not take much time for the reader to link the idea of the text to the information given on the footnote. It guides the readers instantly to the citation or the idea related to the specific part of the information. What is different between them is how they appear with the text.Ī footnote appears at the bottom of the page where the text is written whereas and endnote is right at the end of the text body.įootnotes are easy to locate and readers can find them right at the end of the page.
#ENDNOTE VS FOOTNOTE MAC#
Lucky I still have my OLD mac and can test there for a while longer.Footnotes and endnotes have the same function that is providing extra information that comes along with the text.
#ENDNOTE VS FOOTNOTE HOW TO#
Now, does anybody know how to install Pagina's epubcheck on a Mac in OS Catalina? Holy mloy, what a pain. I did notice that in iBooks (or Apple Books) that the URLs would not work from within the footnote popup, but they did work from ID and also from the Kindle Previewer version. Anyway, at least I didn't have to redo manually all those footnotes! In the kindle previewer it seems to have trouble with linking when there is a page range, but links pretty reliably to a single page reference. But we're a lot closer-and maybe just good enough. Then reconvert, and that seems to mostly have fixed the linking issue-not totally-there does seem to still be some linking issues. I had to regenerate the index, and then fix all the format issues that are inherent with indexes in InDD. So I added pages and fixed all the overset. It seemed like the index wouldn't link to anything that was in overset text. But I did a quick EPUB test conversion and it seemed like it worked, even the overset text was there (I hadn't fixed it yet in the document.)īut, you knew there was a but, it messed up the index. Happily, that DID work, but caused all sorts of overset text, etc. (Still seems prudent to me.)īut, I made a copy of my document to try doing a blanket convert of Endnotes to Footnotes in ID CC2020. I don't like changing horses midstream though, so I was trying to finish my current jobs in the version they started in. Update: I did recently buy a new Mac so I could run ID CC2020 (and if I'm being honest so I could run bootcamp and play more games). Seems like they should have tested this before telling us it worked? Amended to say it does sorta work, with caveats. Note: I have had footnotes work properly in EPUB, but not endnotes. And, eating all this since I told the client it would work. *Is there a way to convert endnotes back to footnotes with having to copy paste each one? (One that definitely works when exported to EPUB.)Īrrrgh. Though I guess this may all adversely affect the index, currently functions in the ebook but the page numbers mean nothing of course. I guess the next thing I can try is to hand convert* (?) all bazillion endnotes back to foot notes (and adjust the layout accordingly as needed when my pictures shift around and fix all the resulting oversets.).
This is the same exact behavior I had when the document was set to split on export and the front matter was a separate section (numbered i, ii, iv etc.).
The numbers are not visible at the start of each note in the back of the book (except for the first note). All other notes don't link-the note number in the text links back to page 1 of the document. On export to EPUB 3 the first endnote links properly back and forth. I made my file all one document, set NOT to split on export, and changed the file to all one section with all arabic numbers (of course they don't print). Currently in CC2018 (but assuming it doesn't work in the newer versions either since I seen no posts with a solution.)
