In documents like timetables, many different symbols, letters, and numbers may refer the reader to particular notes. Other symbols, including the #, Δ, ◊, ↓, and ☞, have also been used. Typographical devices such as the asterisk (*) or dagger (†) may also be used to point to notes the traditional order of these symbols in English is *, †, ‡, §, ‖, ¶. Occasionally, a number between brackets or parentheses is used instead, thus:, which can also be superscripted. In English, a footnote or endnote is normally flagged by a superscripted number immediately following that portion of the text the note references, each such footnote being numbered sequentially.

Unlike footnotes, endnotes have the advantage of not affecting the layout of the main text, but may cause inconvenience to readers who have to move back and forth between the main text and the endnotes.
