Proofreading Services
Be sure that your final product is free of errors. Our proofreaders maintain and integrate the same high standards of communication and accuracy.

Editorial (content) proofreading

  • Read all content; check/correct spelling, grammar and punctuation
  • Fix indisputable errors (e.g. misspellings, typos, numbering errors, verb tense errors) and errors in usage.
  • Check all cross-references, indexes and table of contents, fix incorrect or outdated references
  • Identify missing copy
  • Refrain from questioning author's word choices unless obviously incorrect

Layout proofing

  • Check that layout conforms to the style sheet (e.g. font style, font size, spacing)
  • Verify heading levels
  • Correct hyphenation errors
  • Correct awkward page/word breaks (e.g. eliminate widows/orphans)
  • Check for input errors (i.e. when the layout artist has been required to type in text or make other changes manually)
  • Verify page number references in table of contents
