Gabriela, I can't make much sense out of this:
"Focos planos, focales campan, rayos principales". I don't know what foco plano is. Is the comma in the right place in the original? I think it should be "planos focales", focal planes in English. And "campan" should probably be "campos". Was this a scanned PDF by any chance, which wasn't read accurately?
My guess is that it should really say:
focos, planos focales y campos (campos focales)
rayos principales
foci, focal planes and fields, principal rays
The relative strength of the radial and axial polarization components of the focal field is determined by the numerical aperture. ...

Comment: "I'm afraid that this is not a scanned PDF file but a word file, which states "focales campan" with no further information...
This source text is full of typos!
I've sent a message to the client but I have no answer yet, so I think I'll take into account what you suggest.
Thank you, Maria!
