Greetings,
I’ve been starting to use the external folder sync function so that I can work on files from a project when I do not have my laptop. The sync works seamlessly, but I’ve encountered a puzzle with the formatting of footnotes that I cannot seem to fix.
When I open the .rtf file with an .rtf text editor on an iPad (currently Textilus), the formatting of the footnotes is altered. The following text is added to each footnote: " ?p0?l0" along with a hard return. In addition, any text formatting such as italics is removed. This occurs whether the footnotes in the Scrivener were inline or inspector footnotes (I’ve tried both).
A related issue is that the {} brackets are removed from all footnotes (they are used as temporary text delimeters in EndNote) So “{Smith, 1996, #26}” becomes " ?p0?l0 , 1996 #26." (I wonder if this related to how the {} brackets are used, so I could change the text delimiter in EndNote perhaps as solution to this issue).
I don’t know if either of these issues can be addressed, but I would be grateful for any thoughts or suggestions, as my own writing relies heavily on footnotes and there are some circumstances where I cannot bring my laptop with me.
Cheers,
Taylor
