Best practice for having multiple footnotes which are alike and share the same number on a page?

I have a page with a number drawings etc. There is a footnote inserted in multiple places, but it refers to the same text. So I want to have multiple instances of (1 referring to the same footnote text.

FrameMakers footnote tool will generate a new number and a new footnext text each time it is used. What options do I have?

Cross-reference to the footnote paragraph tag, formatted with a character tag that makes the number look the same as the regular footnote.

This is basically how EndNotes are faked (where the reader expects to have to seek the References section to find the cite detail).

For multiple leverage of the same in-body footnote, in page-oriented presentations, any refs not on the same page probably need to sport a "…on page#" in the superscript.
