I&#39;m experiencing an issue similar to this one:<div>--- <a href="http://osdir.com/ml/emacs-orgmode-gnu/2011-10/msg00544.html">http://osdir.com/ml/emacs-orgmode-gnu/2011-10/msg00544.html</a></div><div><br></div><div>I have a paragraph in which I reference a dollar amount (preceded by &quot;$&quot;). Attempting to insert a footnote anywhere in that paragraph gets me the error &quot;Cannot insert a footnote here.&quot; Inserting one manually leaves the text black vs. fontified in the typical link color. Export produces it as the verbatim text ([fn:xx]) instead of converting it. Trying to escape the $ sign with \ doesn&#39;t fix the issue. Inserting another $ re-activates the footnote, but that will obviously convert my dollar amount to math font, which isn&#39;t what I want.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Any suggestions?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>John</div>
