Position your text insertion point in the main body of your text, where you want the footnote reference mark to appear. From the Insert menu, select Reference, then Footnote. The Footnote and Endnote dialog box will open. Select Footnote.
Word inserts a footnote reference mark at the text insertion point, then moves you to the footnote area at the bottom of the page. When you have finished typing the footnote text, scroll back up the page and click anywhere within the text to return to the main body of your document.
