"dietary fiber" and the amount in grams, they're counting both insoluble and soluble combined. So if a label says 4 grams soluble fiber and 5 grams dietary fiber, that means that there is 1 gram insoluble fiber in there. Labels have to give dietary fiber totals, but they don't have to break out the soluble/insoluble quantities (though they can choose to).
