Step # 2 – Returning to the Body of the Document
You will automatically be taken to the end of your document (here you can see we have jumped to page four out of four). A line will appear marking off the bottom of the text and a Roman numeral will appear to the left of the cursor. Enter your endnote here. When done, return to the first page of the document and you will see the matching numeral at the point in the text where we inserted the endnote.
