At the beginning of the note says that they decided to post a picture archive about powder shape and recognition because nobody have done this in the internet previously, some powder are from factory use only.

I miss these French pistol powders (SNPE/Vectan), which were lately "distributed" under the Nobel name. Well, I did have a couple of surprises with them, but it kept me on my toes...
Despite the size of their flakes, the A's would meter more reliably than our local products in my Auto-Disk; probably because these flakes are flat.

I use Google Chrome as my browser and it has a translate function. It's not perfect, but you can get the idea. Probably IE and Mozilla Firefox have translation modules also. Images are great.
Googling around for ""control con papel de tornasol para determinar su nivel de acidez"... this appears to be a litmus paper (papel de tornasol) test. I located a reference to such a test here ( http://www.sandia.gov/esh/supplements/mn471011/m011c02a01.htm ); the gunpowder is stored with litmus paper and checked periodically. Apparently, if the gunpowder is acidic, that is an indication that it's breaking down.
