See scrguien.pdf or scrguide.pdf (German) for details.
If you don't use KOMA, several packages provide footnote customization.
You can find links to them and the documentation e.g. with a CTAN search:
http://ctan.org/search.html?search=footnote&search_type=description
There is also a German tutorial:
