Do you want the color applied universally to all footnotes through a template
or do you want each footnote to have its own color?
To apply color to all footnotes, simply change the color of your Footnote tag
in your template. You could also apply color on a one-off basis, but that
creates
your Character tag though.
Like I said, it's a bit of a hack, but does get you a colored number and black
text in your footnotes.
