Copy editing

Keeping your document's purpose and intended audience in mind, we'll copy edit your publication to make sure it flows smoothly and makes sense. We'll also check and correct the following:

• spelling
• punctuation
• capitalisation
• grammar
• redundancy
• phrasing
• excessive passive voice
• jargon
• colloquialisms and clichés
• continuity
• style
• tense
• title pages and chapter titles
• references and citations

The most common formats we work with are:

• Microsoft Word - we'll make corrections using the 'Comments' and 'Track Changes' functions, allowing you to see every change and choose to accept or reject each correction.
• PDF - we'll indicate changes using Adobe Acrobat's 'Comment & Markup' features.
• Websites - we can make corrections either in Microsoft Word, on PDF or directly through your content management system
• Google docs - we can also edit and collaborate with you through Google docs

For other formats, just ask!
