To customize the font of the list numbers to match the font of the block, specify the font by using the `Levels` collection and the `CharacterProperties` property of the respective level in the list. Below is an example demonstrating how to achieve this:

To customize the font of the list numbers to match the font of the block, specify the font by using the [Levels](https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/document-processing/api/telerik.windows.documents.fixed.model.editing.collections.listlevelcollection) collection and the [CharacterProperties](https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/document-processing/api/telerik.windows.documents.fixed.model.editing.flow.characterproperties) property of the respective level in the list. Below is an example demonstrating how to achieve this:

1. Implement a custom `FontsProvider` class to supply the desired fonts in [Cross-platform scenarios]({%slug radpdfprocessing-cross-platform-fonts%}). This class should override the `GetFontData` method to return the font data for the specified `FontProperties`.
