2.1.273 Part 4 Section 2.9.1, abstractNum (Abstract Numbering Definition)

WordPad supports this element. When the document is loaded, if the <abstractNum> element contains multiple levels, the list is converted to a bulleted list. When the document is saved, WordPad writes out the <abstractNum> element such that each <abstractNum> element has only one <w:lvl> child element and there is an <abstractNum> element for each unique list. The standard requires that the abstractNumId attribute of this element be a decimal value. When the document is loaded, WordPad allows string values as well. When the document is saved, abstractNumId is written out as a decimal value.
