Hi Guys,

How can I add a custom numbering format for my footnotes example: (1) (2)
(3)... which is very common in Arabic books

Regards,
Yusuf

I've never seen this before (in a western language version of Word,
FWIW), so I doubt that Word is able to provide this out of the box.

It's possible to trap the command to insert a footnote and add the
parenthesis manually.

As Robert said, it can be done manually only. In Find and replace (ctrl+h),
replace ^f with (^&)
