Created attachment 170825 [details] exoticNumbering_MSO2016.docx: mixture of Arabic/Hebrew numbering. Numbering is used in various places in Writer (and Word). 1.) Line numbering: no option that I see in Word to configure this: Always 1,2,3. 2.) Page numbering: very limited support currently - no Hebrew or Arabic chars. 3.) Footnote numbering: spotty support. 4.) List numbering: good DOCX support. Only missing arabicAbjad recognition. 5.) ??? anything else ??? There are some fairly comprehensive conversion functions for both import and export, but they aren't used consistently. I don't see any reason why the same conversion function can't be used in all cases. Steps to reproduce: -just open the document - none of the numbering should be in 123, or roman. -save and reload the document.
