You can use inline footnotes, but I'm afraid you couldn't stop using "fn" here (unless you hack the Org code). However you can use a convention, something like: Lorem[fn:mg1:blah blah blah] ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Donec hendrerit tempor[fn:mg2:blah blah blah] tellus. Donec pretium posuere tellus... And you can also use anonymous online footnotes: Lorem[fn::dolor ipsum lorem] ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Donec hendrerit tempor[fn::blah blah blah] tellus. Donec pretium posuere tellus... (and for more contrast, you can also modify the orf-footnote face to your liking).
