'Summary' at end of doc - want FNs to start again

jellydidit · July 21, 2020

Hi there,

I am using Word on a Mac. I have a big document with many references all the way through, and with a 'summary' at the end.

I would really like the summary to be able to 'stand-alone' if needed eg if someone was sent just my summary then they would have all the referencing info they needed.

Is there a way to get Zotero to stop shortening the references at the start of the summary so that all the info is included in these pages?

Many thanks :)

So you want the footnotes to start over at 1 in the summary?

Make the summary a new Section in Word. Then set the Word setting to restart note numbering in that section. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_word-mso_other/changing-footnotes-so-that-they-start-numbering/e29cb0a5-29ef-4613-bff3-1c1f380e079e

No, the numbering is fine, I already have it starting at 1. It's the content of the footnotes that I want to change. I dont want them to be shortened by Zotero because I have already used them in the document, I want the full references.

Thanks.

Sorry, that can't be done in the same document. Only way to do this would be to finalize this in two documents, unlink citations and then copy them together.

Got it. The best way to do that would be to write the summary in a different document. When you are done, Unlink Citations, then merge the two documents together.

Thanks both, that's good to know.

Disappointing that it can't be done though.
