One question we frequently get asked is, what’s the difference between proofreading and copy editing?
Put simply, copy editing is like a step-up from proofreading. Whereas proofreading eliminates spelling, punctuation, capitalisation and typographical mistakes, copy editing is more intensive in that it looks at grammar and style, word choice and structure as well.
Copy editing is what makes a manuscript stand out from the crowd. When a manuscript has been professionally copy edited, it shows. Inconsistencies, bad wording, problems with grammar are all a thing of the past when you’ve had your manuscript copy edited.
