I would like to use numbered references and symbols for footnotes in my Rmarkdown document. The bookdown package is excellent for the referencing and cross-referencing, etc. However, I can't find any easy way to change the footnote numbering to symbols. Is there an easy way (ideally to export as both Word and PDF)?

Turns out, it's as simple as adding
header-includes:
- \renewcommand*{\thefootnote}{\fnsymbol{footnote}}
To the YAML. Thanks to https://www.resurchify.com/latex_tutorial/latex_footnotes.php
