The most common reason to place an asterisk in a document is to indicate a footnote: a further explanation of a particular piece of the document that would not be in general fitting with the rest of the document (explanations or definitions of obscure terms are common footnotes).
Asterisks are not the only symbols which indicate footnotes. When two or three footnotes appear in a single page, it is not uncommon to see the dagger (†) and double dagger (‡) along with the asterisk, especially in older documents.
An alternative style of notation is to number references: using a superscripted or bracketed number in place of the asterisk, dagger, etc.
The asterisk is used to call attention to a footnote that is included in an article or story. The asterisk sends the reader to the bottom of the page in order to read the footnote.
The asterisk symbol is generally used in sentences to indicate that more on the subject can be found elsewhere on the page or in the work, or as a place-marker for missing letters. An example of the word asterisk used in a sentence would be: I saw an asterisk next to the last word in the paragraph, but I couldn't find the accompanying footnote.
