TWO EDIT CHOICES

COMPLETE REWRITE

At your instruction we will rewrite or copy-edit your document. A complete rewrite is an intense process that improves language and organization. It requires editorial, even creative, judgment -- unlike a proofread or copy-edit. Rewrite includes all proofreading and copy edit tasks. We retain your style unless directed otherwise.

A complete rewrite will:

Correct word usage errors such as redundancy, passive voice, wordiness and diction 

Edit paragraphs and sentences, organization, length, clarity, transitions, grammar and syntax

Check logic, unity, structure, transitions and summaries

Monitor style: appropriateness of tone and voice and level of language to audience

Verify that headings reflect text that follows

Check headings for placement and quantity

Query you for clarity as needed

Check math, numbers, problems and answers to questions

Check descriptions and information in tables and figures

Follow your specific requests such as editing text written by foreign language writers


PROOFREAD AND COPY (TEXT) EDIT

We correct:

Capitalization, punctuation, spelling and grammar

First and later reference of abbreviations and acronyms

Treatment of numbers

Italics, quotes, foreign words and special terms

Lists

Figures, table legends, equations and source information

Reference style

Footnote and endnote sequencing and placement

Run-on sentences

Wordiness

Gender language

Awkward construction or vague language

Passive voice

Misused words

Cross-references

Uncredited material needing formal permission


CHOOSE EITHER LEVEL OF SERVICE; A COMPLETE REWRITE DOES IT ALL
