Problem with lists conversion

I am trying to convert my ebook in docx/pdf format into epub but my content has many numbered lists which gets converted into bulleted lists after the conversion. Is there any way i could prevent this from happening?

@yoshimitsu1234 - are you converting DOCX or PDF ?

DOCX should be OK, but I am not so sure about PDF.

Have a look here http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/conv...-specific-tips

I have attached a ZIP containing Kovid Goyal's demo DOCX, and an EPUB I created from it using default settings. Hopefully these will help you.

Both docx and pdf are giving same thing of converting numbered list to bulleted list on it's own. I still can't figure it out why this is happening.

Sorry. Nothing is wrong with the conversion of files. Actually my windows 7 ebook reader FBReader is displaying lists as bulleted instead of numbered. Thank you for the support.
