[XeTeX] Running footnotes

[Karljurgen Feuerherm]

Hello Jens,

Actually, no, I did not know that--hence the question. Let me try one or the other of these and see whether they fit the bill.

In fact, footmisc does exactly what I want--though for some reason the spacing around the superscripts in the footnote is not very elegant for some reason....

In a further test, having deleted the following things (which I don't need right now but had in my general preamble because I often use one or the other), it came out as desired.

Deleted:
\usepackage{graphics}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage{tikz-qtree}
\usetikzlibrary{positioning}
\newcommand{\lfam}[1]{\textsc{#1}}
\usepackage{rotating}
\usepackage{xstring}
\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{multicol}
\usepackage{supertabular}
\usepackage{graphicx}

It's not too critical but if it should be obvious to someone which of these is messing with footmisc, I'd be happy to know.

BTW the other package, manyfoot, does not appear on my system, though I download everything on MacTeX...

Thanks again for your helpful response!
