-----------------------------------------

I haven't looked at how easy/hard this is to do in itext.   An example or a rough prototype would go along way to making this happen.

> 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>
