Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Tony M, B D Finch

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.

the printers have been given notice that they will shortly receive the material for printing

The business card and the summary of expectations need to be printed, but before that can happen the text must be finalised. So the company has contacted the printers and given them notice that they will soon be receiving the material to be printed. This is to ensure that they will print it as soon as they receive it. At the moment the text is "with Legal for approval": in the hands of the Legal department who must approve it before it is printed.

As my colleagues have all been saying, it is important to point out the correct meaning of "Text with Legal for approval". It means "The text is with the Legal department for approval"; in other words, the text has been sent to the Legal department for them to give their approval. It doesn't mean "write to Legal for approval".

(If it said "Text TO Legal for approval", it would mean that the text is to be sent to the Legal department for approval but hasn't been sent there yet.)
Peer comment(s):

agree Tony M : Yes, and as you rightly say, the 'Text with Legal...' doesn't mean 'write to...' as Asker has suggested
