Examples

Shows the difference between footnotes and endnotes.

Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Below are two ways of attaching numbered references to the text. Both these references will add a
// small superscript reference mark at the location that we insert them.
// The reference mark, by default, is the index number of the reference among all the references in the document.
// Each reference will also create an entry, which will have the same reference mark as in the body text
// and reference text, which we will pass to the document builder's "InsertFootnote" method.
// 1 -  A footnote, whose entry will appear on the same page as the text that it references:
builder.Write("Footnote referenced main body text.");
Footnote footnote = builder.InsertFootnote(FootnoteType.Footnote, 
    "Footnote text, will appear at the bottom of the page that contains the referenced text.");

// 2 -  An endnote, whose entry will appear at the end of the document:
builder.Write("Endnote referenced main body text.");
Footnote endnote = builder.InsertFootnote(FootnoteType.Endnote, 
    "Endnote text, will appear at the very end of the document.");

builder.InsertBreak(BreakType.SectionBreakNewPage);
builder.InsertBreak(BreakType.SectionBreakNewPage);

Assert.AreEqual(FootnoteType.Footnote, footnote.FootnoteType);
Assert.AreEqual(FootnoteType.Endnote, endnote.FootnoteType);

doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "InlineStory.FootnoteEndnote.docx");
