Not sure what "The space is there" means. What matters is what's in Paragraph 
Designer. Is the Autonumber Format (on the Numbering tab) still correct, i.e., 
unchanged by the conversion? 

Assuming it is, what about the numbering settings for the file? How do they 
compare with the same settings pre-conversion? 

Here's a wild guess. If the file is one chapter in a book and normally gets its 
numbering from the book, when you open it standalone, the <$chapnum> variable 
usually retains the value it had the last time the book was updated. Maybe the 
conversion for some reason interferes with the ability to recall that previous 
value, and everything will be fine once the entire book is converted and 
updated. :-)
