Dear Dimitri,Actually, the \auto-footnote function operates a little weirdly (at least it didn't seem intuitive to me). The `text` and `footnote` in
`\auto-footnote text footnote`are just the contents of the markup, so you write what you would write inside the brackets of \markup{}. Like below.
Thanks, -William P.S. Note the use of `\wordwrap` % ----- \version "2.25.18"\markup {Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina was an Italian composer of late \auto-footnote "Renaissance" \wordwrap { \bold { Renaissance music } is traditionally understood to cover European music of the 15th and 16th centuries. } music. }

How can I format text in \auto-footnote?
For example:
\markup {Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina was an Italian composer of late \auto-footnote
"Renaissance" "Renaissance music is traditionally understood to cover European music
of the 15th and 16th centuries." music. }
I want "Renaissance music" in the foot-note text to be bold and “th” in 15th
superscript. Also the text of \auto-footnote is not wrapped.
I tried ChatGPT but it gives a wrong code (it doesn’t compile):
\version "2.24.0"
\markup {
"Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina was an Italian composer of late"
\footnote
#"Renaissance"
#{
\markup {
\column {
\line { \bold "Renaissance music" }
\line { "is traditionally understood to cover European music of the"
\superscript { "15" } "th and 16th centuries." }
}
}
}
"music."
}
Thanks
