Default All my footnotes turned to blue underlined text.
Word for Mac 2011
Version 14.3.5 (120515)
Latest installed update 14.3.5

Writing a research paper, and have 534 Footnotes. I had them formatted as numbers, Black Times New Roman Superscript font, pretty standard. Now they've all changed to 12 pt, normal-script blue underlined text.

- ⌘Z does not fix it
- New footnotes come in in my correct format, not the new one.
- Reformatting the footnotes (say from Arabic numerals to roman numerals) will replace the text with roman numerals, but they stay blue 12 point font.
- Inserting a footnote at the beginning renumbers all the blue footnotes, but does not change the format.

Is there any way other than rewriting 534 footnotes to fix this?
