Editing and proofreading
Our editing and proofreading services will ensure that your printed copy and web content are polished and professional. Our services include:
- editing of documents written by non-English speakers so that the final text reads smoothly and fluently
- revision and harmonisation of documents and web copy written by more than one author, to ensure that style and terminology are consistent
- proofreading, to eliminate minor errors in spelling and punctuation that can make your copy (and you!) look sloppy and unprofessional
Editing may require a substantial degree of re-writing. Proofreading mainly consists of checking for typos and other errors – the final touch in honing your copy. It’s like polishing a crystal glass to its gleaming, sparkling best.
For editing and proofreading we generally use Microsoft Word, in “Review” mode. We can also use Apple’s Pages if you prefer. For a final check we use PerfectIt proofreading software to ensure consistency. If you have your own style guide, we’re happy to use it. If not, we use our own in-house style guide.
