I want to enter in a footnote a reference to another footnote (in this case it's on the same page above).
I found out how I can create the reference, so that it is formatted like a "normal" footnote number (How can I use \footnotemark with a \ref argument?), but how should I typeset it?
Is it ok like in the picture below (in english "see footnote" with a space
between the word "footnote" and the footnotemark?
Or how could that be done better?
- Maybe without the space?
- .. or even not as a footnotemark, but as a normal number (in normalsize)?

In my opinion, you should use full-size numbers -- not only for references to footnotes, but also for the actual notes.
