There are many questions about REVTeX and footnotes or citations, but I cannot find the following. I'm writing an article using REVTeX and have a footnote following a citation. Since footnotes are processed as endnotes I would like to merge the references for the two to get something looking like
Text [1,2].
where [1] refers to a citation and [2] to a footnote.
Here's a minimal working example:
\documentclass[aps]{revtex4-1}
\bibliographystyle{apsrev4-1}
\begin{document}
I would like \cite{key}\footnote{Footnote text} to look as \cite{key,hole}.
\begin{thebibliography}{99}
\bibitem{key} Author, \textit{Title}.
\bibitem{hole} Another author, \textit{Another title}.
\end{thebibliography}
\end{document}
(For me the footnote only compiles well in this example if I explicitly run bibtex.exe, but that's no problem in the full article. Maybe I should also point out that I really use \bibliography{...}
and a .bib-file; I just want to make the above self contained and short.)
Edit. I noticed (cf this answer) that it is possible to refer to the Kth (in order of appearance) footnote by \cite{NoteK}
. This seems to reduce my question to the following:
Is it possible to make a footnote that does appear as an endnote in the bibliography, but is not cited in the text? That is: is there a footnote-like analog of \nocite
that works in this case?
Indeed, then we could just \cite
it directly afterwards:
\documentclass[aps]{revtex4-1}
\bibliographystyle{apsrev4-1}
\begin{document}
I would like \cite{key}\footnote{Footnote text} to look as \cite{key,Note1}.
\begin{thebibliography}{99}
\bibitem{key} Author, \textit{Title}.
\end{thebibliography}
\end{document}
Best Answer
Have you tried
\footnotetext
? You can even give a number as optional argument.
