Footnotes

Footnote references begin with 1 in each leadered grouping, and footnotes are placed at the end, separated from it by 4 points of space. Separate notes from matter following by not less than 6 points of space.
14.13.

If the leaderwork runs over from one page to another, the footnotes will be placed at the bottom of the leadered material.[1]

Units of quantity or other words over a stub or figure column are set italic.
