How to make tiny numbers for footnotes in pages?

I cant figure out how to make the number small in pages on my Ipad 2. The app is up to date and aswell is the software, iOS 5.1 but I can't figure out how to make the number tiny and move up to the left hand corn of the letter. Example, the number should like like the '2' in h2o but I don't know how, please help.

Hi vnessar


When you place the insertion point where you want your footnote referenced (tap, hold, release) and select Insert > Footnote, it automatically places the superscript number for your footnote there and takes you to the bottom of the page in a Footnote field with the reference number already filled in.


If you add another, (tap, hold, release - which brings up the "Select | Select All | Paste | Insert" menu) it will become Footnote 2 and so on.


See Insert footnotes or endnotes


In step 2. Tap >, tap Insert, and then tap Footnote. The triangle is the "more button". Just ignore that and tap Insert and Footnote.


Does that work for you?

I'm at work right now and we use Word so I can't look, but in Word you insert a subscript symbol by going to insert then symbols then subscript then the number. It is probably similar in Pages, but I don't know right off hand how to explain it exactly. I hope this helps. If not, I'm sure someone else can help you.


Good luck! 🙂
