Unfortunately I spoke too soon.

With this recipe -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** Macaroon Tart
\index[pies]{Macaroon 
tart}\index[menu]{Tart!macaroon}\index[cook]{Bake!macaroon tart}
#+begin_ingredients
/\uline{short pastry} [fn:4]/\\
/jam/\\
/1 teacupful sugar/\\
/almond essence/\\
/1 teacupful semolina/\\
/1 reconstituted powdered egg/\\
/3 ounces margarine/
#+end_ingredients
#+begin_steps
- Line the sandwich tin with short pastry.
- Spread jam over it and fill with mixture creamed together from all of the 
above ingredients.
- Bake in fairly hot oven for over 20 minutes (cite:0186).
#+end_steps

[fn:4] See \uline{Short Pastry+} in Part 1 - Basics, Biscuits, Bread & Pastries
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Using this code snippet from my init file -

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq org-footnote-section nil)
(setq org-footnote-auto-adjust t)
#+END_SRC
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

All footnotes are shown at the end of the page.

However with Eric's code snippet the footnotes are shown at the end of
'#+end_ingredients', so how can I get it back at the foot of the page
when exported to latex and built into a PDF again please?

Also the footnote has changed from a numerical superscript to an
alphabetical superscript! How could I get them back to numerical ones
please?

Thanks
Sharon.
