#### 30.10.1 Configuring and placing footnotes

DITA2Go provides the following options for placement of footnotes from your DITA document:

- embed footnotes in text, [between brackets]
- embed footnotes in text, enclosed in tags
- place footnotes at the end of the output file, after a separator
- omit footnotes entirely.

To specify placement of footnotes:

    [HTMLOptions]
    ; Footnotes = Jump (HTML default, at end), Embed (between []),
    ;  Inline (XML default), or None
    Footnotes = Jump
    ; FootnoteSeparator is used at end of doc before Jump footnotes
    FootnoteSeparator = <br /><br /><hr />

Values for Footnotes have the following effects:

Jump | All footnotes referenced in a file appear at the end of the file. If you are splitting files (see §27. Splitting and extracting files), the footnotes for each split file appear at the end of that file. Footnote text follows a separator that you can specify by providing a value for FootnoteSeparator. The default value is <br /><br /><hr />.
Embed | Each footnote appears where it is referenced in text, enclosed in square brackets [footnote text], replacing the reference.
Inline | Each footnote appears where it is referenced in text, enclosed in tags, replacing the reference. This is the default for XML, DITA, and DocBook.
None | Footnote reference and text are both omitted from output.

To specify configuration of footnotes and footnote links when Footnote=Inline:

    [HTMLOptions]
    ; FootInlineTag = tag for beginning and ending inline footnotes
    FootInlineTag=footnote
    ; FootInlineParaTag = tag for beginning and ending inline footnote
    ;  paras
    FootInlineParaTag=para
    ; FootInlineIDPrefix = start of ID attr for inline footnotes; rest
    ;  is sequential number starting with 1 at start of file.
    FootInlineIDPrefix=foot
    ; UseFootXrefTag = No (HTML default) or Yes (XML default)
    UseFootXrefTag=No
    ; FootInlineRefTag = tag for xrefs to inline footnotes, uses linkend
    ;  for href attribute, for DocBook
    FootInlineXrefTag=footnoteref
