Proofreading
Enhance your reputation with professional proofreading
What is proofreading?
Relying solely on spell checking and grammar software programs could cost your organisation money, reputational damage and emotional distress.
Proofreading is a final check of all visual and textual elements. It is a quality-assurance process that happens once all other writing and editing is complete.
How does proofreading work?
A Concise Writing Consultancy qualified and experienced proofreader will carefully check your document for:
- correct grammar and punctuation
- correct and consistent spelling
- correct and consistent formatting of all elements
- missing content or duplicated text
- correct pagination and page breaks
- correct use of citations and references
- compliance with your organisation’s writing style guide.
When can you benefit from professional proofreading?
- If you are familiar with the content of the document.
- If you do not feel confident about English grammar or spelling.
- If you want to present a polished and consistent finished product.
- If you have limited time and tight deadlines.
- If you have received comments about errors in communications.
- If you want peace of mind that your communications are free from typos.
