Thank you Brian, thank you Piet!
Worked just fine (in the original large file too). I do appreciate your
help, it saved me a lot of time and work.
If applied carefully, your method is a simple and useful tool to convert
footnotes.
Best regards
Wojciech

I tried this out and it appears to be easy:
The text is in the content.xml file in the zip file.
The footnotes are of the form
<text:note-citation text:label="6">6</text:note-citation>
followed by a <text:note-body>
(For some reason all the footnote numbers are equal to the last one:6)
In an automatic footnote, the text:label="6" part is missing. So removing this,
changes them to automatic. Then, they will be numbered A, B, C, ... If you want to change this
to numbers, do it with Tools > Footnotes > Numbering as has been mentioned by Brian in an

Of course you should do this on a copy of your file, not on the original (or
have a copy saved).
