Lists in RTF are pretty complicated things. They are split into two parts with
some definitions being part of the document header and some definitions and
the actual list being in the document area. I would recommend readinghttp://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnrtfspec/html/rtfspec.asp to understand how they work and then see how you can use RtfList.write() and RtfList.writeDefinition() to create the document area and document header parts and glue them in the right places. You might have to do some modifying of the RTF code returned by these codes to ensure that list ids are unique. Your current problems stem from the fact that Word has no idea how the list is defined and falls back to its defaults.
