Summary:

If you convert a Word for Windows document to WordStar 4.0 using CONVWS.EXE, footnotes convert as text and appear immediately after the sentence, instead of as footnote text.

Footnotes are not supported by WordStar in releases earlier than version 5.0. Converting footnotes to WordStar 3.0 or WordStar 4.0 will cause the footnote text to be treated as regular text at the location of the footnote reference.

Repeating the conversion to WordStar 5.0 corrects this problem.
