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.

I pasted the wrong one in, which doesn't even work. Hopefully this one will.

: The fact that it was only 'moderately' clear that the text refers to (...) has been proven by the additional context referring to both print and digital media. It is now 'very' clear that CMYK is irrelevant here, since CMYK is print-specific.

I don't really see how it is (moderately) clear from the context given that it refers to the black level established before CMYK separation.

: RGB refers to a number (or a set of 3 numbers) representing the relative mix of red, green and blue in a colour, and it independent of the 'valor de negro' in Asker's context.

Martin Cassell
: black value/valor de negro has a clear, specific meaning: the darkest value reproducible. this should not be confused with "RGB value"

: If it's 'level', surely 'nivel' would be used in the source text?

I'm sure we should be helping Simon to deliver a correct text in English, not proof-reading the author's text.
