Add footnotes
Place a numbered mark in the text and keep the note at the bottom of the document.
Insert a footnote
Footnotes add a small superscript number in your writing. The note itself lives in a Footnotes list at the bottom of the document—not as a link you edit in place.
- Place the cursor where the mark should appear.
- Right-click (or Control-click) in the document and choose Insert footnote.
- A superscript number appears in the text, and a matching entry opens in the Footnotes list below.
- Type the note in the Footnotes list, or open the number mark and edit it there.
Edit or remove a footnote
Choose a numbered mark to open a short editor for that note, or scroll to the Footnotes list at the bottom of the document. From the chip editor, choose Show in list to jump to the matching entry. From the list, choose a number to jump back to its mark in the text.
Right-click a mark and choose Edit footnote to focus its entry in the list, or Remove footnote to delete the mark and its note.
Copy writing as Markdown
To copy selected text for another app, right-click and choose Copy as Markdown—it appears next to Copy—or press Command+Shift+C (Control+Shift+C on Windows). That copies Markdown for the selection; it is separate from inserting footnotes.
