So, for example, if article 1 has footnotes 1 and 2, article 2 will continue from footnote number 3. The beauty is that if you export article 2, it will auto-reset the footnote reference to number 1. The key is to not manually number the footnotes and let C-c C-x f (bound to org-footnote-action) do its thing. Hope that helps. -- Kaushal Modi
