That's right, you can have a single #+STARTUP: declaration at the top of the file, and nearly everything footnote related can go in there. To wit: To influence footnote settings, use the following keywords. The corresponding variables are 'org-footnote-define-inline', 'org-footnote-auto-label', and 'org-footnote-auto-adjust'. fninline define footnotes inline fnnoinline define footnotes in separate section fnlocal define footnotes near first reference, but not inline fnprompt prompt for footnote labels fnauto create '[fn:1]'-like labels automatically (default) fnconfirm offer automatic label for editing or confirmation fnplain create '[1]'-like labels automatically fnadjust automatically renumber and sort footnotes nofnadjust do not renumber and sort automatically Just put all your options on one line, separated by spaces.
