This example requires that you type in each footnote manually, and it then converts the it to a letter: === \setupfootnotes[way=bytext, conversion=characters] % set the number manually % the next footnote will be *3* \setnumber[footnote]{2} The twelve labors of Hercules\footnote{Hercules had to perform 12 near-impossible tasks to become a god} were trifling in comparison with those which my neighbors have undertaken; === However, I think you want just to change where the footnote starts. Hans sent me this about 3 weeks ago. I think it works, though I have not tested it. \setupnumber[footnote][start=45] test \footnote{test} test Paul On Sat, Apr 16, 2005 at 11:08:59AM -0600, Idris Samawi Hamid wrote: > From: Idris Samawi Hamid > To: mailing list for ConTeXt users > Date: Sat, 16 Apr 2005 11:08:59 -0600 > Subject: [NTG-context] superior footnotes > > Dear posse, > > 1.
