Proofreading

My role as proofreader is to check that the copy-editor, designer and typesetter have each done a satisfactory job, using good judgement in marking amendments, with a view to minimizing costs and delays.

When proofreading on screen, I use Adobe Acrobat's editing tools for PDFs; I use track changes when working with Word documents.

I can proofread "blind" or against copy. When proofreading on screen, I can return the amended proofs to you by email or I can upload them to your server. I can also upload the amended proofs to a file hosting service like Dropbox.

When proofreading your website, I will check every page and ensure that the text is free of spelling and grammatical errors, and that it is presented in a logical and consistent fashion. I will also check that all hyperlinks are functioning correctly and lead to the correct information.
