Endnotes Part

Content Type:

application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.endnotes+xml

Root Namespace:

http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main

Source Relationship:

http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/endnotes

An instance of this part type contains all the endnotes for the document.

A package shall contain no more than two Endnotes parts. If it exists, one instance of that part shall be the target of an implicit relationship from the Main Document (§11.3.10) part, and the other shall be the target of an implicit relationship from the Glossary Document (§11.3.8) part.

example:
<Relationships xmlns="…">
  <Relationship Id="rId6" 
    Type="http://…/endnotes" Target="endnotes.xml"/>
</Relationships>

The root element for an Endnotes part shall be <endnotes>.

example:
<w:endnotes xmlns:w="…" …>
  <w:endnote …>
    
  </w:endnote>
  <w:endnote …>
    
  </w:endnote>
</w:endnotes>

The XML markup for an endnote in a Main Document part uses the <endnoteReference> element.

example:
<w:p …>
  
  <w:r>
    <w:t>... in the Standard.</w:t>
  </w:r>
  <w:r>
    <w:rPr>
      <w:rStyle w:val="EndnoteReference"/>
    </w:rPr>
    <w:endnoteReference w:id="5"/>
  </w:r>
</w:p>

Each endnote has a corresponding <endnote> element in the Endnotes part, which contains the text of the endnote, and the <endnoteRef> element.

example:
<w:endnotes xmlns:w="…">
  <w:endnote w:id="5">
    <w:p>
      <w:r>
        <w:rPr>
          <w:rStyle w:val="EndnoteReference"/>
        </w:rPr>
        <w:endnoteRef/>
      </w:r>
      <w:r>
        <w:t xml:space="preserve"> This can be downloaded from </w:t>
      </w:r>
      <w:hyperlink r:id="rId2">
        <w:r>
          <w:rPr>
            <w:rStyle w:val="Hyperlink"/>
          </w:rPr>
          <w:t>http://www.aabbcc.com/index.html</w:t>
        </w:r>
      </w:hyperlink>
      <w:r>
        <w:t>.</w:t>
    </w:p>
  </w:endnote>
</w:endnotes>

An Endnotes part shall be located within the package containing the source relationship (expressed syntactically, the @TargetMode attribute of the <Relationship> element shall be Internal).

An Endnotes part is permitted to contain explicit relationships to the following parts defined by this Standard:

An Endnotes part shall not have any implicit or explicit relationships to any other part defined by this Standard.
