Importance of professional editing

Proofreading and editing is a known and demanding service in recent times. But, students and others have taken considerable time to understand the benefits and essentiality of these services. While experienced academics, professional journalists, established businesspersons and even globally famous authors have always had their work corrected, checked, and perfected by professional proofreaders and copy-editors, students often have failed to understand the importance of paper editing.

However, fortunately there is a change in the outlook and students are waking up to the fact that if they are to stay ahead of the competition, they need to make use of the services of professional proofreaders and academic editors. Spell checkers are not good enough to ensure the highest grade so your paper should be proofread and edited by expert eyes.

Why need professional document editing?

There is a marked difference between proofreading and editing. While in the former there is no change made to the content or tonality of the language, an editor can do so for the betterment of the document. Here are the key points to look out for in document editing:

• Improve the overall quality of the language (here, English)
• Fix all grammatical, spelling, punctuation and typographical errors
• Improve mistakes that can’t be handled by automatic spelling and grammar checkers
• Remove or complete all fragmented sentences
• Correct improper tense usage (such as dangling modifiers or wrong passive tense)
• Break up or shorten lengthy sentences and paragraphs
• Eliminate redundancy and repetition
• Ensure consistency of citation or referencing style
• Make certain of the consistency of either British or American English
• Format the work according to professional standards, improving margins, layout, paragraph breaks, line spacing and fonts
• Professionally format your table of contents, references, bibliography, lists of figures, charts, graphs and tables
