It is known that the set of factorization lengths of an integer in an algebraic number field with class-number \(\neq 1,2\) is an almost arithmetical progression (see Definition 4.2.1 and Theorem 4.6.6 in [\textit{A. Geroldinger} and \textit{F. Halter-Koch}, Non-unique factorizations, Chapman \& Hall (2006; Zbl 1113.11002)]). The authors obtain a kind of converse of this result.
