Editorial Services
Level 1 or Light Editing - Errors related to spelling, punctuation, capitalization, abbreviations, and formatting (headings, captions, and citations) are rectified and consistency is ensured in all these aspects.
Level 2 or Standard Editing - This is the most common level of editing. Errors related to spelling, punctuation, capitalization, abbreviations, formatting (headings, captions, and citations), and grammar (articles, prepositions, conjunctions, syntax, S-V agreement, tense, voice, pronoun-antecedent agreement, among others) are rectified. Vocabulary-related errors are corrected. Redundancy and repetitions are eliminated. Queries are raised for ambiguous and unclear text. Missing text is flagged. Consistency is ensured in all aspects. It is also ensured that the logic and the sense in the context of the writing are preserved and the author's tone is maintained.
Level 3 or Advanced Editing - Extremely-poor-grammar writing falls under this category. Here extensive rephrasing is done to improve the language.
Proofreading
It’s all about the little details
No detail is too small for our meticulous proofreaders. They come in after our copy editors to ensure nothing has been overlooked from spelling and punctuation to facts and figures and every word, comma and full stop in between.
Preparing for launch
Unlike copy editors, our proofreaders won’t suggest major changes to the text. Instead they look for minor text and formatting errors and confirm the material is error-free and ready for publication.
