Interesting--because that's not how they appear in
print.
Until recently, when someone posted to put them on the
same line as the sentence, I left or put the footnote
numbers above the line. Before I realized about
superscript I raised them using the character spacing
under font in the Format file. Partway through Before
the Dawn I discovered superscript. Before the Dawn is
a fascinating and easy-to-read account of genetics and
evolution. I'm not one who understands science easily
and I found this comprehensible and readable. If you
have the space in your number of downloadable books to
check it out, I'd be interested to know how the
footnote numbers appear to you. In skimming to find
them, I found one on page 16 and one on page 17.
To the eye they are easier to spot when they are
superscript, except they're so small. When they're on
the same line inthe same font as the rest of the
sentence they're harder to spot, but of course when
one is reading along they're not.
