Find out what to expect from a copyeditor: what they do, how they work, the kinds of edits they make, how long editing takes and the standards they adhere to.
Proofreading is the final stage in the process of producing a piece of text – either in print or online – before it’s published or shared with its intended audience. A proofreader looks for mistakes within the text and also needs to take into account the effects of any changes they suggest and how they will fit into the existing page layout. The job of a proofreader is therefore to carry out the final quality check.
