the API specification is that, an specification, and so abstract. But it you go to the specification for example http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/util/NumberFormats.html you'll find links to the Developer's Guide http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/OfficeDev/Number_Formats where things are explained in detail (at least on this case) > It appears to be > impossible to add another number format type. yes, it is possible (but at document level, as stated in the Dev's Guide).
