In light of your comments (John) in the discussion that the term is from a catalogue, "series cortas, medias y largas" the stress is on the fact that "No order too big, no order too small"....
John it would really be useful to potential answerers if you gave more context from the beginning, telling us where the text is from and who the target audience is.
