Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Barbara Carrara, Rachel Fell

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.

Un libro ad Alta Leggibilità è un libro accessibile anche a chi ha specifiche difficoltà di lettura – come i dislessici – ma che in generale rende più agevole la lettura di tutti....

L’Alta Leggibilità agisce essenzialmente su due livelli:

l’abbattimento delle barriere tipografiche
la comprensibilità del testo
alta leggibilita def-web
Abbattere le barriere tipografiche...

testo non giustificato, con lunghezza irregolare delle righe per facilitare il passaggio da una riga all’altra e per evitare la divisione in sillabe;
paragrafi spaziati che offrono a chi legge dei traguardi di lettura facilmente raggiungibili;
carta color crema che non dà riflessi e di uno spessore tale da scongiurare la trasparenza del verso della pagina;
l’uso di uno specifico carattere di stampa (la font biancoenero®) che garantisca la massima chiarezza e aiuti a confondere il meno possibile le lettere.

I see what you're saying but not a word of context was given, it could be a book review or just someone's notes.../I didn't google it!

easy reading book

It's a book also accessible to those with specific reading difficulties - such as dyslexics - but which in general makes it easier for everyone to read.

an eminently readable book

The solution I have opted for is justified by its avoidance of a much too literal rendering of "alta leggibilità" into "high readability": indeed, if such an option is stilted, the adverb+ adjective collocation "eminently readable" is, in my humble opinion, stylistically more acceptable.
