***************************************************************
1. In your EDD, you must change the element type for fnoteref from
"Container" to "cross-reference element". For this element, specify an ID
Reference attribute named "rid". You should also specify an initial
cross-reference format named (for example) "FootnoteRef" for fnoteref.

2. When you import the EDD into your import template, it will create a new
cross-reference format named "FootnoteRef".

3. In your import template, you must now define the cross-reference format
named "FootnoteRef".

4. In your read/write rules file, you must include the following rules

        element "fnoteref" {
                is fm cross-reference element "fnoteref";
                fm property cross-reference format value is "FootnoteRef";
                attribute "rid" is fm id-reference attribute "rid";
}
