I am testing out Typewright by looking at
http://www.18thconnect.org/typewright/documents/250081/edit?src=alto&page=2#
This page contains footnote letters a, b, etc that upset the flow of text. Is there any way of marking them up or do I just include them as separate words?

Dear Peter,
First, apologies for the delayed response here. I'm happy to continue a conversation here in the forum or via email (technologies@18thconnect.org) should you have any other questions, concerns, or needs.
We do allow some optional markup in the TypeWright tool for paratextual elements, such as catchwords and signature marks. While we don't allow all TEI markup in the TypeWright tool, we have built in functionality to add and export (as XML, when a document is marked complete and evaluated) certain elements. Those can be found at the address below.

So, where "a" directs to a footnote, should I use the following syntax?
A. To glorifie <hi rend ="sup">a</hi> God, and save his
This does not display at all - i.e. "a" still looks like a word:
A. To glorifie a God, and save his
Peter
A. To glorifie <hi rend ="sup">a</hi> God, and save his
This does not display at all - i.e. "a" still looks like a word:
A. To glorifie a God, and save his
Peter

The TEI will not display in the TypeWright interface. Adding TEI to the transcription will only make a difference if you, or any user, wishes to work with an XML export of the document once corrections on that document are completed. So, the addition of TEI tags in the TypeWright interface is *not* meant to enhance the appearance of the transcription within the TypeWright tool -- it simply allows a user to get a headstart in making a digital edition. TypeWright is not an edition builder; it is a crowd-sourced correction tool.
I hope this information helps.
