FWIW, Let Over Lambda uses "#." . I figure that the footnote is part of the sentence so should appear before the full stop. I also disagree with the convention of including the stop inside quotation marks. Official way: John said "hello." My way: John said "hello". IMO, the stop is not part of the quotation, it is part of the sentence. But maybe programming has warped my mind here. :) Doug
