    I want to use an special numbering format.

    instead of 1, 2, 3, 4, …

    I want Avval, Dovvom, Sevvom, Chaharom, … which are in persian.

    Could you not initially just number as normal, then convert numbering to text, then do a GREP find/replace?

    Did you want digits or whole words?
    The Middle East versions of InDesign at least let you define which set of digits are used for numbered lists, including an option ‘Farsi digits’ with the 4, 5, and 6 different from the Arabic ones.
    So you can change from 1, 2, 3 to ? ? ? etc. Of course that didn’t work on the forum software, but I typed the same digits as used on, for example, https://www.languagesandnumbers.com/how-to-count-in-persian/en/fas/
    But there’s no option to define your own whole words.
