Gets or sets a boolean value that specifies how the numbering will be imported when it clashes in source and
destination documents.
The default value is False

# to identical styles as Aspose.Words imports them into destination documents.

# If we set the "keep_source_numbering" flag to "False", then the list from the document clone
# that we append to the original will carry on the numbering of the list we append it to.
# This will effectively merge the two lists into one.
# If we set the "keep_source_numbering" flag to "True", then the document clone
# list will preserve its original numbering, making the two lists appear as separate lists.
