-
-This example demonstrates the use of package\newline
-\textsf{footnoterange}, v1.0a as of 2012/02/17 (HMM).\newline
-The package does not use options.\newline
-
-\noindent For more details please see the documentation!\newline
-
-\noindent Save per page about $200\unit{ml}$ water,
-$2\unit{g}$ CO$_{2}$ and $2\unit{g}$ wood:\newline
-Therefore please print only if this is really necessary.\newline
-
-This\footnote{Lorem} text bears a multiplicity of footnotes.
-Because the \texttt{hyperref} package is used with option
-\texttt{hyperfootnotes=true}, the footnotes%
-\begin{footnoterange}%
-\footnote{ipsum}%
-\footnote{dolor}%
-\footnote{sit}%
-\footnote{amet,}%
-\footnote{consectetur}%
-\footnote{adipisicing}%
-\footnote{elit,}%
-\footnote{sed}%
-\end{footnoterange}%
- are hyperlinked.\footnote{do eiusmod\ldots} Using
-\texttt{hyperfootnotes=false} or not using \texttt{hyperref}
-will remove the hyperlinks to the footnotes.\newline
-
-This text also bears a multiplicity of footnotes,
-but due to the use of the starred%
-\begin{footnoterange*}%
-\footnote{Ut purus elit,}%
-\footnote{vestibulum ut,}%
-\footnote{placerat ac,}%
-\footnote{adipiscing vitae,}%
-\footnote{felis.}%
-\footnote{Curabitur}%
-\footnote{dictum}%
-\footnote{gravida}%
-\end{footnoterange*}%
- form of the environment they are not
-hyperlinked.\footnote{mauris\ldots}\newline
-
-The use of the optional parameter for footnotes%
-\begin{footnoterange}%
-\footnote[101]{Nam arcu libero,}%
-\footnote[102]{nonummy eget,}%
-\footnote[103]{consectetuer id,}%
-\footnote[104]{vulputate a,}%
-\footnote[105]{magna.}
-\end{footnoterange}%
- is also possible, but should be used consistently.
-
-\pagebreak
-
-When there is only one footnote%
-\begin{footnoterange}%
-\footnote{a single footnote}%
-\end{footnoterange}%
- in the \texttt{footnoterange} environment, only one
-footnotemark is used and an info is written into the
-log-file.\newline
-
-The usage of other footnote-number-representations
-(e.\,g.~\verb|\Roman|, \verb|\roman|, \verb|\Alph|, \verb|\alph|,
-\verb|\fnsymbol|) is also possible, but two things must be taken
-into account: The number of footnote references is restricted (for
-example with \verb|\Alph| only references A to Z are possible), which
-can be fixed e.\,g. with the \texttt{alphalph} package, and references
-to footnote-symbol-ranges (\verb|\fnsymbol|) are probably
-not very clear.
