When doing a paper, a footer is at the bottom of each page and usually will just have your last name and the page number on it. So, its basically like a header, just at the bottom. In Microsoft Word, you just have to click on view and then header and footer.

A footer is at the bottom of the page not in the area where the body of type is printed. Usually reserved for page numbers.

If you are trying to do footnotes/MLA style formatting, there are two ways to annotate. In word: View:Header & Footer, tab down to the Footer. Also, if you are referencing other's work : Insert:References:(choose the one that you need, play with different options until you figure it out.)

this is what wikipedia has to say for it here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_footer :
"A page footer or simply footer in typography is that material which is separated from the main body of text and appears at the bottom of a printed page"

a footer is where you put the page # or any bibliography details. in microsoft word you can set up the footer quite easily

a foot note? you put a small number next to a word and then at the bottom of the page you put what the word means or something else you want the reader to know. it's like the same idea as an asterik.

I think it's like an addendum to the body of the work. The source of the information presented, as in an asterisk (*) or a reference to the postulation. If I'm wrong, I'm only wrong.
