Guys, there is problem:



I have large intervals between the footnotes in my Word document.

What I need is to remove this intervals.

I tried to format footnotes (remove this intervals using standard Word 2013 menus) but every time I do this nothing changes.

See picture attached.

It is in Russian don't be afraid

The spaces are probably because you have either an empty paragraph or a line break in the footnotes concerned. Try clicking where the spaces are then hitting the Backspace key.

Thank you, Macropod!

But the thing is that I can't click the place where the space are. This place is unclickable.

In that case, click on the ¶ symbol on the Ribbon's Home tab, to show Word's formatting marks. At the end of each footnote you should see a ¶. If there's a gap between that and the next footnote, it means that one or more of your footnote paragraphs has a paragraph before or paragraph after space set. You could simply change the paragraph formatting to set the before/after space to 0, but the better approach is to do that to the footnote paragraph Style - and ensure that Style is applied to the footnote.

Thank you once again, Macropod!

Now, I see ¶ signs after every footnote. The gap is still between that and the next footnotes. See photo attached.

After that I tried to go both ways you described, but I failed.

Could you please write and algorithm which menus use in Word to solve the problem (steps)? Thanks in advance!

Do this:
• Select footnotes 420 & 421 together.
• Go to Home>Paragraph>Indents & Spacing.
• Input 0 into the Spacing 'Before' and 'After' boxes.
• Press OK.
