Use-by-Reference Footnotes - Not Working in Native PDF Publishing

Has anyone gotten the use-by-reference footnotes to work in Native PDF Publishing?

 

The output works as expected in the default DITA-OT output, but it isn't working as expected in Native PDF Publishing. What am I missing?

Hi @sschnelbach

 

I tried using use-by-reference footnotes, and it works on Native PDF publishing with all three default templates. I am attaching a screenshot here for reference.

 

Please share your sample content to alakshminara@adobe.com, along with your published output using DITA-OT and Native PDF and we can check this further.

That screenshot is showing three different footnotes (singe-use). I'm not seeing an example of the same footnote being referenced more than once in the text, but only displaying once at the bottom (use-by-reference). (See screenshots uploaded here.)
