### More than one sequence of footnotes

The need for more than one series of footnotes is common in critical editions (and other literary criticism), but occasionally arises in other areas.

Of course, the canonical critical edition macros, edmac, offer the facility.

Multiple ranges of footnotes are offered to LaTeX users by the manyfoot package. The package provides a fair array of presentation options, as well.
