PDF Export not honoring html macro?

SallyD

My document includes a numbered list interrupted with graphics. To get the proper numbering on the steps, I used the html macro to force the correct number. For example:

<ol start='6'>
<li>Do this. 
</ol>

The wiki page is very happy with all the correct numbers in place.  However, when I export to PDF these 
list items are all numbered 1.  

Has anyone else seen this?  Is there something else I can do to make it work?

Response from Atlassian Support:

Hello Sally,

Thanks for waiting. I was able to replicate the behavior here and thus, I've opened a bug report for you: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-25634

Seems the issue is only caused by the HTML macro, so I replicated using a standard content to show the devs how to replicate the issue too.

I suggest to vote and watch the bug report for further updates. I'm sorry about the inconvenience.
