How can I pay?
We will email you an invoice.

system that allows you to keep all your details
safe.
How safe is my document with Proof Readeri?
Your
document is safe with us. Only our staff and/or advisors will see
it. It will not be made available to other
parties.
What
happens to a document once Proof Readeri has finished with
it?
Your
document is your property and copyright. We will keep it on file
for one calendar month after it has been returned to you (just in
case) or less if you prefer. Then it will be permanently
deleted; any paper copies will be shredded.
What
will the editing look like?
MS
Word documents: clear mark-ups and comments using Track
Changesallow you to
adopt the editor's recommendations if you wish at the click of a
button.
Hard copy
(paper): if you wish, standard proofreading symbols will be
marked up in colour; we will include a key, if you need it, to
enable you to make changes on your own copy. We can also
provide less technical mark ups.
Shared
documents e.g. Google docs: shared editing allows you to view the
revision history.
What
document formats will you accept?
For
hard copy (paper) any format is acceptable but double line spacing
and 3 cm margins are essential.
For
material submitted by email or on memory stick, MS Word is
preferred.
