Very Customized numbered list
I see the same thing: it doesn't work with Arabic. Here, I do not have full support for the Arabic language installed (in Office and Windows). I am assuming that is required.
ammarata With an Arabic version of Office installed, I believe that the numbering format that you are looking for will be in this list.
- for me, the Arabic version is not friendly, i feel more comfortable with using the english version.
i was looking for how i can edit the list source, or import the list from the arabic version to the english one.Just testing now with Spanish and English as I had already uninstalled the Arabic version, if the have the Arabic Version installed and go to File>Options>Language and under Office Display language, move the Arabic version to the top of the list
Then after restarting Word, follow the procedure in
the article "How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in your Microsoft Word document" on the following page of the Late Shauna Kelly's website:

to define a numbering style with the required type of numbering, and apply that language to the Style to which you link that numbering, in the Modify Style dialog, making sure that the modification will be applied to all documents based on the template, when you then go back to the Options>Language facility and set English as the Office Display language, you can get that type of numbering when you apply that Style as shown below when I followed the above procedure with Spanish before changing back to English.
