| 24 | <para>If <parameter>footnote.number.symbols</parameter> is not the empty string,
|
---|
| 25 | footnotes will use the characters it contains as footnote symbols. For example,
|
---|
| 26 | <quote>*&#x2020;&#x2021;&#x25CA;&#x2720;</quote> will identify
|
---|
| 27 | footnotes with <quote>*</quote>, <quote>†</quote>, <quote>‡</quote>,
|
---|
| 28 | <quote>◊</quote>, and <quote>✠</quote>. If there are more footnotes
|
---|
| 29 | than symbols, the stylesheets will fall back to numbered footnotes using
|
---|
| 30 | <parameter>footnote.number.format</parameter>.</para>
|
---|
| 31 |
|
---|
| 32 | <para>The use of symbols for footnotes depends on the ability of your
|
---|
| 33 | processor (or browser) to render the symbols you select. Not all systems are
|
---|
| 34 | capable of displaying the full range of Unicode characters. If the quoted characters
|
---|
| 35 | in the preceding paragraph are not displayed properly, that's a good indicator
|
---|
| 36 | that you may have trouble using those symbols for footnotes.</para>
