Example document has autonumlgl fields in it which get imported as 1 to 8

Writer does not import the AUTONUMLGL field as expected, it converts to a simple number sequence.  
This is also reported in OpenOffice Issue 25362            
Operating System: Windows 7
Version: 4.0.0.3 release
Comment 1 Joel Madero 2013-02-28 17:02:24 UTC
Thank you for reporting this issue! I have been able to confirm the issue on:
Version 4.1.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: b8e0455f201198b1deb8f8ca0181e6c9cadc335)
 Date:   Sat Feb 23 16:04:37 2013 -0600 
Platform: Bodhi Linux 2.2 x64
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

As I've been able to confirm this problem I am marking as:

New (confirmed)
Enhancement (this is requesting additional features that currently are not supported by LibreOffice)
Low

The reason why I put low is because even my MS threads on office.microsoft.com I see "AutoNumLgl field numbers....is considered obsolete but is provided for compability with older version of MS Office"

Contains ListNum LegalDefault field codes

Thankyou for your prompt response.
I have replaced the field with {ListNum LegalDefault} which seems to be the new format MS Word is useing.
Now when I import the number it mostly retains the legal structure but the numbers are now in a random order.
I have attached a new document as an example, which should have same numbering as the original.

Indeed - that is a separate issue. If you write up a new bug and CC me on it I'll confirm it. I'll mark that as a true bug not an enhancement as it's clearly screwing up the numbers.
