When your content is nearing the finishing line you want be sure that it is the best that it can be. Using my CIEP-nurtured Proofreading skills and my detail-oriented approach I will polish your content into a publication that shines.

  • On-screen proofreading – proofreading by PDF annotation or proprietary systems.
  • Fine-tuning – spotting and correcting all the spellings, typos, punctuation, grammar, style, artwork and design issues that need attention.
  • Consistency – ensuring a consistent standard and applying the agreed style throughout the content.
  • Care – reading your content thoroughly to ensure edits are spotted and applied in the right context.
  • Pragmatism – applying edits according to your style but appropriate to this late stage in the production cycle.
  • Using a light touch – keeping intervention to an essential minimum so that new errors and layout changes are avoided.
  • Cross-checking – ensuring the text, citations, notes, table of contents and other front matter are all in step.
  • Time efficiency – establishing with you an achievable schedule that accommodates quality work and project deadlines.
  • BSI standard proofreading marks – applying BSI marks to PDF annotation or hardcopy according to your preference.
  • Proof-editing – proofreading, plus editing more extensively according to your requirements, if your content needs extra attention.
