Hi, John. I installed it but can’t find anything about footnotes in either the GUI or the documentation. Can you get me started on finding that feature?
Best regards,

Sure, I’m glad to help.
The newest version of WhizFolders has not yet been released. If you have the latest installed, ask Sanjay for the update to 6.7.2. All you need do is replace the whizfolders.exe which is already installed with the one Sanjay will give you. The endnotes and footnotes feature is not in the gui. From Sanjay’s instructions:
“<

Please understand that I am assuming Sanjay will provide you with the update. I have no reason to think he would not. He has been quite responsive and generous with me.

Thanks, Jon,
What I’m really after is footnotes in HTML export. For .rtf and other formats supported by WordPerfect, there’s a macro that can convert text marked up as you describe to footnotes. http://wptoolbox.com/library/ConvertR.html But WordPerfect’s HTML export sucks.
Best regards,
Paul

Hi folks, Paul, the article author here again. I just wanted to thank you for adding the suggestions of other outliners to review; I have made a note of them and will review them when I next update the article (in a few weeks). I will post on the forum when I have completed the revision.
Have a great week.
