Proofreading

Service Description

Proofreading should be the final step before a document is published. Traditionally, this was done on galley proofs (i.e., rough versions of a text made before mass printing). And in the publishing industry, “proofreading” still refers to checking a typeset text for errors missed during editing. Proofreading involves a bit of editing e.g. as well as looking for typos, I may suggest ways to improve clarity or concision. Nevertheless, proofreading is still most useful at the end of the editing process. If too many changes are required during this stage, I may suggest further editing is required.
