There is no need to highlight the text of the footnotes, you have already been alerted to look for the text by the highlighted numbers in the table.

Highlight all the little, tiny, winnie, footnote numbers in the tables so they stand out. Add the "forewarding address", i.e., page number of the reference to the margin next to the paragraph. Like many codes, AWS D1.1 will direct you to a different paragraph (reference), table or figure. Add it to the index so you can find it easily. For example, if you look up F number in the index, you will not find it. I also suggest that you add keywords to the index.

I agree that AWS D1.1 is easier if you take the time to prepare both yourself and the Code.
