Chicago Footnote Generator

Writing footnotes in Chicago Notes & Bibliography style often feels harder than it should be. The rules are strict, the punctuation is easy to get wrong, and copying footnotes between tools can quietly break formatting. This Chicago Footnote Generator focuses on one thing only: helping you generate clean, copy-ready Chicago footnotes with stable superscript numbers you can actually use in real documents.

Key Features of the Chicago Footnote Generator

📚

Generates Chicago-style footnotes, not reference lists

This tool is designed specifically for Chicago footnotes, not bibliographies or APA-style references. It follows the Chicago Manual of Style ( Notes & Bibliography) structure, including proper placement of author names, italicized titles, publication details, and page numbers.

Superscript numbers that don't break when pasted

Most footnote generators rely on text styling. We don't. Superscript numbers are generated using Unicode characters, which means they remain superscripted when pasted into Word, Google Docs, Notion, or PDFs. This solves one of the most common Chicago footnote formatting problems.

✍️

Designed around real writing workflows

This tool was built for the moment when you're already writing and just need a correct footnote — not a full citation system. It fits naturally into the writing process instead of forcing you to adapt to a new one.

🎯

Focused on footnotes, not everything else

Unlike general citation generators, this page focuses entirely on Chicago-style footnotes with superscript numbering. That narrow focus allows the tool to handle details that broader tools often overlook.

📚

Part of a larger academic formatting toolkit

This generator is developed alongside SuperscriptGenerator.net, which means footnote numbering and formatting are treated as first-class features, not add-ons.
