inline footnotes border top

jim_albright
It seems like having multiple inline footnotes on a page causes the border-top to be thicker than when just one footnote shows up.

@footnotes {
border-top: thin solid gray;
border-clip: 5pc;
padding-top: 9.6pt;
}

text is of diglot with two floats inside and outside

If I increase magnification this problem goes away. So nothing to fix.

BTW I really like the inline footnotes. They are just what I needed. I also like the log file warnings:

I am adjusting the tracking on previous paragraphs to see if I can resolve the footnote going to next page.

This is a late reply, but did adjusting the tracking have any effect on footnotes staying on the correct page?

No. You cannot always force footnotes to be the way that you want. Life is messy.

Haha, I appreciate the candid answer.
