Hello...

Neither have I using NWP 1.4.x as well as OpenOffice. But mostly I use 
either NWP in favor of Apache OpenOffice.

If I recall right the numberings has something to do with the very 
special way (read: odd) that Word handles line endians in the .docx on 
Windows. I've seen it before and once not even AOO would open such a 
file without the numberings, so I returned the document and asked the 
sender to fix the endian problems and send in .rtf format instead.

I don't know how it is in LibreOffice, but in OpenOffice you must enable 
  /all/ the MSOffice compatibility converter plug-ins for it to work proper.

My first thought - like Simi - was to use Find&Replace to remove the 
numbers, but then my mind told me from somewhere way back that it isn't 
a good idea, since this can mess up the whole file, when the author 
opens the corrected document.

so, if NWP won't behave I think that LibreOffice or OpenOffice will be 
the best to use here....

- Btw.... There are the same problems with .xlsx files sent from Windows 
machines.:-(

Cheers, Erik Richard
