Thanks, Richard. A wee bit unclear about the difference. Is it that Foot To End 
you can have either and revert from end to foot, while with Endnote you can 
have either but can't revert from end to foot?
With Foot to End, you just use footnotes, but they come out as endnotes, 
and if you remove the module, they're back to being footnotes. With 
Endnote, you can have both footnotes and endnotes, but they are what 
they are.

have either but can't revert from end to foot?

I have been puzzled by references to ERT, but then came across an explanation 
somewhere on the LyX website, I think maybe in the FAQs. At first I thought the 
command could be put in the LaTeX Preamble under documents/settings, but now I 
understand that wouldn't work. 

Thanks again,

Beginner's questions: Converting footnotes to endnotes

2011-12-06 Thread Eric Weir

I'm just starting to set up a document. I'm using the Standard Article class. 
I'd like the footnotes to appear at the end of the article. I understand I will 
need to activate a module to do that. 

Which module do I use -- Endnote or Foot to End? And once I've done that, how 
do I instruct LyX to move the footnotes to the end of the article?

Thanks,
