I use outline numbering a lot with LO and it's always giving me fits. 
Just when I think I understand it, it throws me another curve.

I believe the outline numbering is controlled by the settings in the 
Template being used when you open an empty new document. I don't think 
it is controlled by paragraph styles.

At any rate, the easiest way I know to clone a document is to save it 
with a new name, using the "File/Save As" command. Then the original 
version will have the original name, and the cloned document will have a 
new name. I think everything should be properly reproduced then.
