Hi,

Thanks for your request. First of all, you can use ListLevel.NumberFormat property to get format of the list number:

Also, if you need to simply get the list number, you can achieve this using ListLabel as described here:

Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

I open the document with this code:

doca = new Aspose.Words.Document(@"c:\1.docx");
Aspose.Words.Lists.List list1 = doca.Lists.Add(Aspose.Words.Lists.ListTemplate.OutlineLegal);
// Modify the formatting of the list.
list1.ListLevels[0].NumberFormat = "%1 ";
list1.ListLevels[1].NumberFormat = "%1.%2 ";
list1.ListLevels[2].NumberFormat = "%1.%2.%3 ";
list1.ListLevels[3].NumberFormat = "%1.%2.%3.%4 ";

foreach(Aspose.Words.Paragraph p in doca.Sections[0].Body.Paragraphs)
{
    p.ListFormat.List = list1;
    p.ListFormat.ListLevelNumber = 0;
}

then get this document:
1 test1
2 test2
p.ListFormat.ListLevel.NumberFormat return “%1”,p.ListLabel return “”,but I want get “1” and convert list number 1 to text 1,?like function doc.Sections[0].Range.ListFormat.ConvertNumbersToText() in word.

Hi,

Thanks for your inquiry.

Please attach your input Word document (1.docx) and target Word document here for our reference. I will investigate as to how you are expecting your final document to be generated like. You can use Microsoft Word to create your target Word document. I will then provide you code to achieve the same by using Aspose.Words. Moreover, you may want to take a look at the List class below:

Hi,

Thanks for your inquiry and sorry for the delayed response. In your case, you can turn your list numbering into static list labels by using the following code snippet:

Document doc = new Document(@"C:\Temp\sourcefile.docx");
doc.UpdateListLabels();
foreach(Paragraph paragraph in doc.GetChildNodes(NodeType.Paragraph, true))
{
    if (paragraph.ListFormat.IsListItem)
    {
        string label = paragraph.ListLabel.LabelString;
        Run run = new Run(doc);
        run.Text = label;
        run.Font.Name = "Calibri";
        double leftIndent = paragraph.ParagraphFormat.LeftIndent;
        double hangingIndent = paragraph.ParagraphFormat.FirstLineIndent;
        paragraph.ListFormat.RemoveNumbers();
        paragraph.Runs.Insert(0, run);
        paragraph.ParagraphFormat.LeftIndent = leftIndent;
        paragraph.ParagraphFormat.FirstLineIndent = hangingIndent;
    }
}
doc.Save(@"C:\Temp\out.docx");

I hope, this helps.
