If the footnotes are substantially large (many lines long), this could dramatically impact your document's page breaks. Also, make sure that you don't further restrict the document's flow by using Keep with Next or Keep Lines Together formatting in the Format/Paragraph dialog. This type of formatting is indicated by little black squares along the left edge of the text (when you have the paragraph marks turned on). David
