Pharmaceutical manufacturers must write understandable package inserts for medicines, the EU Commission demands. The readability of package inserts is part of these regulations, and TextQuest/ReFo facilitates this type of readability analysis:

• Package inserts are defined as a separate text genre.
• Headings and bulleted lists are automatically recognised and counted as complete sentences
• The correct readability formula is automatically selected depending on the language.

Working on the package insert is easy and comfortable; you can edit it directly and then carry out an analysis. After the analysis, you can display sentences that are too long or words that are too long, edit them immediately and then see what effect this has on the values of the readability formulae. Since each paragraph is analysed individually, you can immediately see which paragraph needs revision.

The results can be copied from the clipboard and processed further from there.
