@nprofile1q... It seems to me the superscript daggers, and the other footnote tricks would be referenced with full sized symbols of the same down below. Supersript in the text, as notation, but down below they'd be full glyph height. Which means either there should be a function in the editor being used, to superscript the regular dagger (for example) within the text, but then not superscripted in the footnote.
Which means to me that most likely a glyph for both versions is needed. Is this accurate?
Also, a dagger showing a death date is likely trying to convey a cross, now that I think about it (likely works better in a sans).
