I believe a related bug has been filed: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2802486&group_id=15255&atid=115255
They're using the HtmlWorker, but I'm guessing the root cause is just in the RTF generation. I see the same behavior that you are in one of our test cases. However, we're not currently using sub lists in our product (so I haven't looked at fixing it myself, yet). If you're able to fix the source code, and submit a patch - well, that would be awesome. :) I have a couple of similar outstanding patches - maybe when the project goes into "incubator" mode, they'll get merged in. btw - thanks to Bruno, Howard, et al, the RTF support does go a pretty long way. And if you're willing to fix a couple things here and there for your specific uses - you can do a lot with it.
