You state "setup in arabic" and she "see it as arabic".  Your 
statement does not make sense.


You are using "standard" English numbering?  Are you wanting Serif or 
San Serif style - Times Roman vs Arial?


Did you define the font style of the footnote, or did you use the 
defaults?


Which fonts are you using?  Does the receiver have those fonts?

Could you sent to me a clip of your screen showing the numbering style 
used?  Then I might be able to give you some better ideas.
 Perhaps what was meant: the document created in LO use 
Hindu-Arabic numbers. However, it is very possible that someone whose 
native language is Arabic uses different characters to write their 
numbers. Perhaps MSW is using the latter way to write numbers. Evenso, 
this does seem very strange.
