title: affiliations and corresponding author comment as footnotes on latex article
body: <p>I am trying to use the LaTeX article document class to create a simple paper with the authors listed on the title page with their (potentially multiple repeating) affiliations as numeric footnotes and other author comments as symbolic footnotes. For example, I want something like</p>
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/B9dAZ.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/B9dAZ.jpg" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>
  <p>However, I haven't been able to make this happen despite trying multiple different solutions. Is there a simple way to do this?</p>
  <p>I have tried using the <code>bigfoot</code> package to create multiple different types of footnotes combined with <code>footmisc</code> with the <code>multiple</code> option to get multiple footnote markers with commas between them, but I end up with superposed markers and no footnotes. My minimal latex document is:</p>
  <pre class="lang-latex prettyprint-override"><code>\documentclass{article}
  
  \title{My title}
  
  \usepackage[multiple]{footmisc}
  \usepackage{bigfoot}
  
  \DeclareNewFootnote{AAffil}[arabic]
  \DeclareNewFootnote{ANote}[fnsymbol]
  
  \author{
          David Kaplan\footnoteAAffil{A University}\footnoteAAffil{Another University}\footnoteANote{Corresponding author}\footnoteANote{Equal contributors}
          \and
          Prince Charming\FootnotemarkAAffil{2}\FootnotemarkANote{2}
  }
  \date{\today}
  
  
  \begin{document}
  \maketitle
  \end{document}
  </code></pre>
  <p>And the output I get is:</p>
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/lX2aM.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/lX2aM.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>
