Can I move footnotes up to be below text instead of at the end of the page?

Copy and Paste works fine too!

I was searching for answers to this problem and I still haven't found a suitable solution.

For anyone still looking:

If you don't want to use another program for some particular reason (for me, Pages was the only editor on OS X easily available that correctly did Right-to-Left languages; Word was unable to do this), there is a crude workaround. Once you are finished editing (and I mean really finished editing because this will screw your document up if you add or subtract text or change margins), you can go through and edit the footnotes that need to be moved up by adding lines at the bottom of the last footnote on that page. By adding lines, the footnote moves up and you stop when they reach the bottom of the text body. Essentially, you align the footnotes manually by inserting blank lines in bottom-most footnote forcing the rest of the footnotes upward.

Again, this isn't a good workaround since any editing will require massive changes (I should know with a 350 page dissertation), but its better than nothing and better than Word for certain tasks at the moment.

Mellel has excellent right to left support and works with Bookends.
