I just want to make my superscript numbers bigger, so I'll choose that setting there, and click OK and then OK again.Īnd then with the final OK button, you'll see here that the superscript numbers are now bigger, and you might even say they are a little more readable. Incidentally, this is where you can turn off that Superscript setting if you don't want your numbers raised, but I happen to like that, so that's fine. Okay? We are going to modify that style, and we are going to modify the font. So to get to those behind-the-scenes Styles, we're going to go to this little arrow, and we're going to go down here to this Manage Styles button.Īnd then we want to look for the footnote reference style, so we are going to go ahead and choose alphabetical here, and then find it in here. It uses some behind-the-scenes Styles for that. Now, if you have used Word Styles before or even if you haven't, they are up here on the HOME tab, okay?Īnd you've got your Heading Styles up here.īut Word uses Styles to display this little footnote and to make this text look good down here in your notes pane, okay? You can do all that, and the way we do that is we use Word Styles. Maybe, you want to change the font or the size or the spacing. Maybe, you want that footnote number to be bigger, or perhaps you don't want to use superscript, or maybe, this text down here, you want it to look a little different. So, for example, we have a little superscript three here. You have inserted footnotes, but maybe you don't like the size of the number.
