<pos> (Endnote Placement)

This element specifies where endnotes shall be placed on the page when they are referenced by text in the current document.

If this element is present at the section level, then it shall be ignored.

If this element is omitted at the document level, then endnotes shall be located at the end of the document.

example:

The endnote setting is the same for all sections, and is represented by the following WordprocessingML at the document level:

<w:settings>
  …
  <w:endnotePr>
    <w:pos w:val="sectEnd" />
    …
  </w:endnotePr>
  …
</w:settings>

Within the properties of the document, the position of endnotes is specified to be at the end of each section. ]

Attributes

Description

<val> (Endnote Position Type)

Specifies the position of endnotes on the parent section or the document.

<w:settings>
  <w:endnotePr>
    <w:pos w:val="endSect" />
  </w:endnotePr>
  …
</w:settings>

The @val attribute is endSect, therefore the position of endnotes is specified to be at the end of the section. ]
