    Description

      Issue Summary 

      When using the Confluence Word doc import feature, any multilevel lists that are imported have their numbers replaced with letters, and letters replaced with numbers. 

      Steps to Reproduce

      Import a word doc with a multilevel list into Confluence. 

      Expected Results

      I expect the word doc to import into Confluence without changing the formatting of my multilevel lists. A number should import as a number. And a letter should import as a letter. 

      Actual Results

      My word doc looks like this: 

      a. 

      b. 

      c. 

      d. 

      1. example 1
      2. example 2
      3. example 3

       

      When imported into confluence, the page looks like this: 

      1. 

      2.

      3. 

      4. 

          a. example a

          b. example b

          c. example c

      ...

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
