When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

: See my comment on Tatyana's answer. "Bon à tirer" is "print approval", though.

Thanks for the "print approval" bit. I couldn't think of it last night.

understandibility (and placement) of label printed on pharmaceutical package
Just a guess...
During visual inspection, the second pharmaceutical label (put on the package) is "superimposed" over the original one ("ready to print" label), once it's confirmed that they match.
I hope this helps.

"Understandibility" may work here because "compréhension" is quite a vague term. Perhaps in English we shouldn't be as specific as "readability", etc.

: I don't think there is a second label Matthew. It's the 'bon à tirer' that is superimposed to check that all is correct.

: on the right track - readability, legibility, clarity maybe - "understandability" is important in marketing - one of the criteria for quality labelling - but I don't think it applies here / OMG Lionel agrees with me - and yet I can't understand French...

Thank you, SJLD! "Understandability" is a bit vague, but I something like "readability" in mind. Have a nice day.

Discussion
Here’s the context before and after:
Before:
- Couleur: l’examen visuel par comparaison avec la référence PANTONE® doit
être conforme.
After:
Identification de l’aluminium: réalisée par réaction chimique.
L’identification est positive s’il réapparaît un précipité blanc gélatineux.
Emplacement et compréhension: l’examen visuel par superposition doit être conforme avec le bon à tirer original.
The original French sentence may be perfectly correct, imho.
What that means, I do not know as of yet...lol
Please ask client what it means ? UNDERSTANDING ?
