how do i cite twice for the same book but for different page numbers?How do i do the correct FOOTNOTE FORMAT?
If you are using Microsoft word, it is relatively easy to change the format of footnotes using the options available to you when you click on the insert reference option. There should be a button to click that will let you change the style and arrangement. Also, under the style section, you can change the font and size of the footnotes.





The Chicago Manual of Style online details how to cite footnotes exactly. I'm assuming you're using the Chicago Style of documentation, as MLA and APA are typically parenthetical forms of documentation. If you aren't using Chicago, then I don't know what to tell you.How do i do the correct FOOTNOTE FORMAT?
There is no single correct format. You can either use your own preferred style or use the style described in a guide such as MLA or CMOS.





Using ';op. cit.'; etc. for second footnotes is a bit out of date now. Just follow your style guide.
If you're using MS Word, all you have to do is highlight the footnote as you would any other copy and change the typeface to whatever it is you'd like. If you want to change format throughout for all of the footnotes and you don't want to change it one by one, you can go to Format, go down to Style, and select the footnote style from the left-hand window. Select Modify, and you can change the formatting of the footnote style globally.





As for the citation of the same book but with different page numbers, just use Ibid, p. __. (Obviously, fill in the dash with the page number.)
