Endnotes to static endnotes
This is a little complicated and I don't know what the client did exactly, but they gave me a word document with endnotes only, from several different chapters. I am assuming they cut the various chapter endnotes text (only) and pasted them into a new word doc. Thus the endnotes have been separated from the document text with note indicators. When I take this word file and import into indesign, the "import endnotes as static" option does not work. The note numbers cannot be selected, the space between the note number and note text cannot be selected. If I delete a carriage return between two notes, the note number after the carriage return will disappear. I am guessing there is nothing that can be done, but wanted to check before I manually renumber a thousand notes. BTW, the notes that were cut and paste, were edited after cutting them out. So, I can't reimport the original chapter files to get the endnotes as static, because they don't have the edits.
