the text follows a publisher's house style. Copyediting should be done once you have a final draft of your document or manuscript. If your document has not gone through a review process it is probably not ready to be copyedited. If the review process suggests the text needs substantive work, you should consider a developmental edit. Copyediting does not take the place of developmental editing. However, you may choose a medium or heavy copyedit if the structure and content pass review, but you require rewording for flow and clarity, check of heading levels, edit for active voice, and so on. Take a look at editing definitions and rate guidelines from the following resources: After your copyedited text has been typeset, you should have it proofread to check for any errors that were overlooked, or introduced during typesetting. We edit electronic documents using the Track Changes feature of word processing software. You receive edited files via email. with red-line changes shown so that you can easily reject or accept each change. We also send a clean copy of the file so you can do a cold read of the text with edits already accepted. How do I order copyediting services?
