Proofreading Questions
What is the difference between proofreading and copy-editing?
​
There is a clear distinction between proofreading and copy-editing.
Copy-editing is done before proofreading and involves intensive editing to ensure your document is easy to understand and easy to read.
​
Proofreading is the process of reviewing the final draft of, for example, an essay before submission, and involves the checking of mistakes in spelling, punctuation, grammar and formatting to ensure consistency and accuracy.
We do offer in addition to proofreading a light editing service which involves checking the consistency in the layout of your document and deleting and re-wording parts of the text to ‘improve’ it.
