Description
After using the Python API to convert a doc to md, I see that the headers are erased.
For example, the output is,
### Introduction
Whereas, I want,
3.1.1 Introduction

Research direction
Reproduce the issue through the Python API by converting a document containing a numbered heading such as “3.1.1 Introduction.” Trace the document-to-Markdown conversion path and check how heading information is represented. Done means the converted output preserves the requested heading information instead of emitting only “### Introduction”.
