Dear Dennis,

Are the “Indian” numbers you are referring to these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_numerals?  If so, on Windows 7:

1.       Install the Hindi keyboard (Devanagari – INSCRIPT) to the local profile.

2.       Switch to the Hindi keyboard.

3.       Open Word 2010.

4.       Insert a Footnote from the References Tab.

5.       Highlight the new footnote number and right click on it.  Select Note Options…

6.       Under the Format heading, click on the Symbol… button.

7.       In the top Font dropdown menu, select the Mangal font (installed with Windows 7).

8.       In the top Subset dropdown menu, select Devanagari.

9.       Scroll down a few screens until you see the number you would like to insert and click on OK.

10.   Click on the Insert button.

11.   Go back into your footnote and delete the old footnote number.

This could be a quite cumbersome task, so my suggestion would be to have your instructor go ahead and complete the document using English numbers for now … and then switch them all over at the end.

Best of luck.
