The parnum format is square bracket, four digits, square bracket
As to the text formatting, it's supposed to be plain - no bolds,
different sizes, anything - section titles are supposed to be like the
rest, merely in upper case [1] . Interestingly, the one sample provided
/does/ show horizontal lines above and below the section titles... (been
looking for the last 20 minutes and cannot find that one, sorry...)
Thus no problem as to Class, pretty much anything plain page would do.
Maybe Memoir will be the "fix". I've tried Koma, all sorts of plain and
some other assorted (my code was hacked out of hollywood...), but never
Memoir. I'll get into it right now.
BTW, I see you're Aggie, Stefano, I am located in Austin myself.
Thank you so much!

1.-
"the pages of the specification (but not the transmittal letter sheets
or other forms), including claims and abstract, must be numbered
consecutively, starting with 1, the numbers being centrally located
above or preferably below, the text. The lines of the specification must
be 1.5 or double spaced (lines of text not comprising the specification
need not be 1.5 or double spaced). It is desirable to include an
indentation at the beginning of each new paragraph, and for paragraphs
to be numbered (i.e., [0001], [0002], [0003], etc.).
It is preferable to use all of the section headings described below to
represent the parts of the specification. Section headings should use
upper case text without underlining or bold type. If the section
contains no text, the phrase "Not Applicable" should follow the section
heading."

Well, I would suggest using the paragraph sectioning command, with a
few tweaks to get the font and spacing identical to the following
text. That would also allow you to insert non numbered paragraphs
anywhere you want. But before a solution can be provided: what is
format of the numbering? Do you need numbers padded with up to three
zeros? That is less trivial, even though there are packages that do
that.
Also, it depends on which document class you're using. Here is a stab
using memoir and the fmtcount package to get the padding zeros:
Put this in your preamble:
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{5}
\setafterparaskip{0em}
\setbeforeparaskip{0em}
\setparaheadstyle{\normalfont}
\usepackage{fmtcount}
\renewcommand\theparagraph{{[}\padzeroes[4]{\decimal{paragraph}}{]}}
Then, use the first few words of each real paragraphs as the content
of the paragraph environment, as per in the enclosed example. You may
want to write a simple module that tweak the layout of the paragraph
environment in lyx, perhaps, to match more closely the final output,
and put the preamble code in the same module.
Cheers,
Stefano
