Addition of footnotes
---------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-4211
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4211
             Project: Seam
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: PDF
         Environment: Seam 2.1.2.CR2, Mac OS X
            Reporter: Robert Morse
            Priority: Minor

It would be great to have the ability to footnote a paragraph, cell, or text and have the footnote appear on the same page as the referencing tag.  This is different from a footer which repeats on every page. As a suggestion, I would embed some special footnote character within the text that would be replaced by the appropriate footnote number / letter.   Then create a new <p:footnote> tag that would contain the actual footnote.  It would look something like:

<p:paragraph>
   <p:text value = "this is the word &#185; that gets footnoted"/>
   <p:footnote value = "And this is the footnote that gets positioned at the bottom of the same page"/>
</p:paragraph>
