A footprint is an outline / impression of a foot, caused by applying pressure, eg. the sand on a beach. A footprint can be subtle or deeply pressed into something. A footprint could also be made out of a substance such as paint, where the foot has been covered in this substance and transferred to another surface, either accidentally or on purpose, creating a "print" of the foot.

Footprints usually imply humanoid feet.
