Surely lines are not numbered by default? Thanks for alerting me. I have checked what the situation is. It is as follows: There are two switches for line numbering. The first is at the <text:line-numbering-configuration> element and controls line numbering for the document itself. The later is a paragraph formatting property, and it controls whether a certain paragraph gets line numbers if (and only if) line numbering is enabled for the document itself. Even if its value is true, lines are not numbered if the switch in the <text:line-numbering-configuration> is false. The paragrapg formatting property can be used to control by styles or per paragraph (using automatic styles) whether line should be numbered or not, provided that line numbering is enabled. This is at least that was intended. Unfortunately the description of the two text:number-lines does not make clear what the difference between the two is. We should somehow clarify that for ODF 1.2. The reason for having the switch in the <text:line-numbering-configuration> element is actually to have a single place where line numbering can be enabled or disabled. Without that switch, line-numbering would have to be enabled or disabled at every paragraph style (including automatic styles) that has a text:line-numbering attribute, what is not very convenient.
