Default Definition of Linearity

I have a specification for an amplifier design that says "0.25%
linearity".

I can't seem to lay my hands on a precise definition of what that
means.

Likewise... How to calculate?


wouldnt that just translate to 0.25% voltage distortion ?
I assume that 0.25% is a linearity error, otherwise it would be a rather
poor amplifier.

Ya mean something like 99.75% distortion? ;-)
