How do I know which service
to request?
Proofreading is generally
requested when the writer is happy with the structure of their document and wants a quality check to
identify errors such as spelling mistakes and
typographical errors.
Our combined
Copyediting and Structural Editing is generally
requested when the writer wishes to identify areas for improvement in their document. These areas
may include suggestions to improve sentence construction, correct English grammar and to apply
consistency throughout the document. Editing also aims to improve readability through better
paragraph layout and formatting.
We also review the document in terms of
completeness, tone, document architecture, and logical presentation of the document as a
whole, to ensure that the objectives of the writer are met.
