How Word Treats Footnotes that Break Over Two Pages
When you add a long footnote to a document, the entire footnote might not fit on the page where the footnote reference appears. In that case, Word continues the footnote to the next page. You can control how Word handles such continuations, as you discover in this Quick Tip.

    While it's true that adding a comma between stammered words keeps Word from flagging them as grammatically incorrect, a comma is itself still grammatically incorrect anyway. A dash should be inserted between-between words or phrases that get-that get repeated.

      I'm not sure I understand the question. If you have a page that includes one or more JPG images, you can print multiple pages per sheet. But, you are printing PAGES, not images.

    Thank you, Allen, for this quick tip on graphics. Graphics and Multi-level lists have always given me a bit of trouble. I did purchase your recent offering on Graphics and how to work with them in Word but videos devoted to using graphics are very helpful. Might you continue this topic by creating videos using different graphic styles (e.g., in line with text (which is this one), behind the text, in front of text, etc.)? That would be great. But, you’re the director of your videos and you probably have many planned already “in the pipeline”! Thanks again.🙏🏼

    It seems to me that moving the words to the spike is less useful than copying them. It looks like the spike is LIFO, unlike a real physical spike which is is FILO. (Unless you take off the bottom holder and slide each word/paper off the bottom of the spike.) In W10, you can use the multi-copy clipboard more effectively do do more than what the spike does, except you have to paste what you copied/cut individually, but the clipboard does let you paste in any order and you don't have to put what you paste after new paragraphs. If you don't know about the multi-level clipboard, just press WindowsKey+V.

    • @wordtips2907
      @wordtips2907 3 месяца назад

      Word provides a multitude of ways to copy and paste information, the Spike being just one of the ways. People using the program should (as always) use the tool(s) that best fits what they want to accomplish in their editing.

    Under what circumstances would you want the "spiked words" REMOVED or CUT from the doc? I would want to spike a sentence or two from different areas of a doc to COPY them to another area. Is that possible instead of just "moving them? If so how? Thank you Allen.

    • @wordtips2907
      @wordtips2907 4 месяца назад

      The spike only cuts text; there is no way to copy to the spike. That being said, you can cut to the spike and immediately press Ctrl+Z. This "undoes" the cut, but still keeps the information on the spike. That is the closest way to achieve copying something to the spike instead of cutting.

  • @jaybcreighton
    @jaybcreighton 4 месяца назад

    Thank you, Allen, for this quick tip. I assume, but do not know, that more than one word at a time can be added to the spike, i.e., instead of selecting “embed,” you could have selected the entire sentence in which the word was located, and add the sentence to spike for later “pasting”? Also, can you add text to spike and then “paste” the text in another document? Thanks again for this helpful, much lesser known, Word utility.😊

    • @wordtips2907
      @wordtips2907 4 месяца назад

      You can, indeed, choose more than one word at a time. (Sorry if that was unclear.) And, to the best of my knowledge, you can "spike" from one document to another.
