Importing Framemaker 11 Numbering Position into Robohelp 10

Hello,

I'm working on converting a set of documents from Framemaker 11 into Robohelp. In these documents, we have a style set that uses the automatic numbering, with the position set as "End of Paragraph". This means that in Framemaker, all of these paragraphs show up as:

[Texty text text blah blah] <Auto Number>

When I import the documents into Robohelp, the number is correct, but the formatting is incorrect, as the autonumber now appears at the beginning of the paragraph:

<Auto Number> [Texty text text blah blah]

I've been tearing my hair out trying to change the importing behavior or css to change this, and have hit a brick wall. Is there any way to fix this so that the numbering can appear at the end of the paragraph in Robohelp, as it does in Framemaker?

Thanks

What do you have in your Conversion Settings in RH? You probably want the “convert as text” option for your autonumbers

Yup, convert as text is selected.

It seems to import the information just fine, Robohelp just seems to ignore the position setting of Framemaker's numbering setup.
