IEC documents are notorious for nested footnotes. In a properly rendered PDF, footnote a) says "For class 1, use column B." But in many corrupted downloads, the hyperlink is dead, or the footnote block is missing entirely. The "fix" is to copy/paste the footnote from a different section of the PDF, effectively rebuilding the document manually.
