I am compiling a project into docx. each time I try it though, it changes a section of the manuscript into a numbered list mode. Is there a way to view invisibles to see where it switches? It appears normally though on my scrivener screen. I also noticed that when it does that, it also is changing my footnotes from that point on to double spaced.
To view invisibles in the Editor, navigate to Format > Options > Show Invisibles. Even if this doesn’t show anything out of the ordinary, you might want to try highlighting the text where the list occurs and going to Format > Lists > None for good measure.
See if this has any effect on your footnotes. If nothing changes, post a screenshot of the compiled document, and the document as it appears in Scrivener, so we can see exactly what’s going on.
