11.3.4 Endnotes Part

Content Type:

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

Root Namespace:

http://purl.oclc.org/ooxml/wordprocessingml/main

Source Relationship:

http://purl.oclc.org/ooxml/officeDocument/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: The following Main Document part-relationship item contains a relationship to the Endnotes part, which is stored as the ZIP item endnotes.xml:

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

end example]

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>

end example]

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

[Example: Consider the case in which the Main Document part contains the text “… in the Standard.”, and there is an endnote inserted immediately after the period:

<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>

end example]

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

[Example: The text of the endnote is “This can be downloaded from http://www.aabbcc.com/index.html.” where “http://www.aabbcc.com/index.html” is marked as a hyperlink:

<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>

end example]
