Proofreading

A proofread of your document involves checking the following:

Spelling
Grammar
Punctuation
Basic layout
Consistency of page numbers
Formatting of table headings
Correct use of any labels

Accuracy in these core components will ensure that you present a quality document.

Copy Editing

You may choose a more in-depth review of your document by way of a copy edit. A standard proofread will be combined with a closer scrutiny of your document as a whole. Additional aspects that will be considered include:

Consistency in writing style
Clarity of ideas (as the proofreader is not an expert in your field, this is a good way to test the document is able to be understood by all readers)
Appropriateness of language to your audience
