Split Footnote Text For Free

Footnotes and Endnotes are, by default, separated from the body of the text by a short horizontal line known as the Footnote or Endnote Separator. This can be customised but you must have at least one footnote or endnote in your document before you can carry out the following: Make sure you are in Draft view.

The Footnotes pane appears at the bottom of your document. You can edit the color or style of the separator by choosing options on the Home tab, or, to delete the separators, click Footnote Separator in the Footnotes list, and then select and delete the separator line.
