This is what I want to achieve for endnotes in a book typeset using LuaLaTeX 2020.
- Endnote marker at the left margin
- Hanging indent (endnote text should indented throughout, not just first line of each note)
- No line space between successive notes
- Endnote text fully justified
I started with the answer here
\documentclass{book} \usepackage{endnotes} \usepackage{lipsum} \renewcommand\enoteformat{% \raggedright \leftskip=1.8em \makebox[0pt][r]{\theenmark. \rule{0pt}{\dimexpr\ht\strutbox+\baselineskip}}% } \begin{document} \endnote{\lipsum[1]}\endnote{\lipsum[2]} \theendnotes \end{document} and changed the code to remove the space between two notes by deleting +\baselineskip. This worked and the extra space was gone. So then I tried to justify the endnote text using justify (I am using ragged2e anyway in my book). This is my code now
\documentclass{book} \usepackage{endnotes} \usepackage{lipsum} \usepackage{ragged2e} \renewcommand\enoteformat{% \justify \leftskip=1.8em \makebox[0pt][r]{\theenmark. \rule{0pt}{\dimexpr\ht\strutbox}}% } \begin{document} \endnote{\lipsum[1]}\endnote{\lipsum[2]} \theendnotes \end{document} But this reintroduced the space between the endnotes. I tried playing around but cannot figure out how to eliminate the space.
memoirclass (a superset ofbook, \report, ...) provides a very flexible endnote capability (calledpagenote) in the documentation. Read 12.6 Endnotes in the manual (>texdoc memoir`).
