I would like to see if someone who knows Libreoffice well will chime in. I=E2=80=99m sure it=E2=80=99s possible somehow. I have put Alan in the Cc as he has previously uncovered amazing options in LO. Alan: we want to be produce an odt document that mimics something like the following in LO: X[fn:1] [fn:1] Y[fn:2] [fn:2] Z Worst case we can check the ODF specification which is sort of readable. Otherwise, we=E2=80=99ll have to throw a warning. (Error isn=E2=80=99t goo= d here). Thanks, Rasmus --=20 Together we'll stand, divided we'll fall
