<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif;color:#050C15">Hi all –<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif;color:#050C15"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif;color:#050C15">I’ve been working on a policy manual, attempting to remediate it for accessibility. This is my first time working with a long-ish document (31 pages) that uses numbered
headings that follow traditional outline levels. I’ve run into a problem with Word’s automatic numbering, and I’m not sure whether it’s a bug in Word, or whether I’m doing something wrong.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif;color:#050C15"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif;color:#050C15">When I was sent the original document, I cleared all the formatting out of it, copied and pasted the text into a new Word document, and created a new set of headings as
follows:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo2"><![if !supportLists]><span style="font-family:Symbol;color:#050C15"><span style="mso-list:Ignore">·<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">

so that if, for example, I have headings something like…<o:p></o:p></span></p>
