Of course. See attached Word file (the first couple of paras of an article from the London Review of Books that's freely available in full on their website - so, no copyright issues).

When I send this to my device using KoboTouchExtended, most of the formatting shows up fine - including, for example, the small caps on the opening line and in "BC" (in a couple of places in the text). But all of the numerals revert to lining figures. (So, in "284 BC", in the final para., "BC" is set correctly, but "284" isn't.) A case like this is what made me notice the issue in the first place.

Just to clarify: I've installed Minion Pro on the device - but the same issue can be seen using one of the fonts that comes with it, e.g. Malabar.
