This question Using \footnote in a figure's \caption already has some suggestions on how to get a footnote in a caption. None seem really satisfactory because it seems hard to get the footnote text on the same page as the footnote mark. Anyway, I still want to do something more complicated: put two footnotes in one caption.
Is there a better way to do this and get the right numbering than to play around with the footnote counter manually? Obviously using \footnotemark[]
is not an option because this will lead to wrong numbering sooner or later.
To demonstrate the default behaviour:
The code used was this:
\documentclass[a5paper]{article}
\usepackage{fnpct}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\caption[Caption title in LOF]{This is a footnote in a caption\footnotemark{} and another one\footnotemark.}
\end{figure}
\footnotetext{First footnote}
\footnotetext{Second footnote}
\end{document}
