Paul, thanks for replying

I did follow your explainations, but in the test file sent by Knoute29, footnotes are gathered together, and yes, it works fine if selected in a row (altogether).

But when notes are disseminated (scattered?) in the text (as they are in my converted files), i have to select them with the Ctrl key, and in that case, i found that it doesn't work
Am I right ?
