PRS Proofreading Services UK USA

Proofreading (also written as proof-reading or proof reading) means reading a proof copy of a text in order to detect and correct any errors, whatever they might be.

A Proof Copy is a manuscript that has been typeset after the copy editing.

Proof typescripts often contain typographical errors that are introduced by mistyping (hence the word typo to refer to misplaced, missing or incorrect characters).

Copy Editing (also written as copy-editing or copyediting) is the work that an editor does in order to improve the formatting, the style, and the accuracy of the text.   Unlike general editing, copy editing does not involve changing the substance of the text.   It adheres to the original intended meaning.

Copy refers to written text or typewritten text, intended for typesetting, printing, or for publication.

 
PRS Proofreading Services can proofread and copy edit any document or scientific manuscript or academic article produced by authors, your company or your business.   The text can be checked and corrected for spelling, grammar and punctuation errors.   Additional checks are made for terminology, jargon, line edits, syntax correction, sentence structure, the reworking of text, and semantics.

     Absolutely.   You can send as many texts or documents or manuscripts as you wish and PRS will deal with them efficiently.

 
Your text / document / manuscript / thesis is private, confidential and secure.   If it has not been copied from another source, then it is your intellectual property.   PRS will not disclose any information about you to a third party.   Any communication between you and PRS is not divulged to anyone else.   Additionally, we will never reveal your contact details or your email address to another person or company.   You can rest assured that all of our dealings with clients are treated as being classified.

 
Proofreading marks are most often used for publishing houses (such as for books, magazines, newspapers), see the image below: -

 
No, we do not.   PRS used to use them prior to 1990 - but no longer.    In our experience, many Clients become very confused if we use proofreading marks on their documents.   Clients do not have the time, or the inclination, to learn what to them seems like a new language.   Clients come to PRS for help with their English writing, not to study and master proofreading marks.

PRS used to use 'MS Word Track Changes' in the 1990s.   However, a great majority of Clients found them too difficult to concentrate on all of the "little red markings".   They simply used to give up.

a)   If for some reason you want to see the 'errors and mistakes' in your original text / document / manuscript / thesis, you can request PRS to send you the 'errors omissions reworkings' working document to you.   In that way, you can learn more about the English language.

 
Yes, of course.   After all, we are human beings ......... and humans make many mistakes in their lives.  But thankfully, it is very rare for us to make a mistake or to miss an error.    If by some remote chance we do miss a mistake or an error, you will maybe remember what Alexander Pope once said, "To err is human, to forgive divine" (English Poet 1688 - 1744).

 
PRS can receive your text/document as an email attachment.   Email attachments can be sent as either an MS Word document [preferred method], or by using a text programme such as Notepad.   You can even copy your text directly into an email.   For more information, please go to SEND YOUR MANUSCRIPT FOR A PROOFREADING QUOTATION

The problem that you are experiencing is an issue with the web browser that you are using to surf the Internet.

Normally, if you are using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, then all of the characters on the web page should show correctly.   However, if you are using IE8 (Internet Explorer 8), the letters and characters for South Korea, China and Japan may not all be showing.   IE8 is not configured to show all Asian letters and characters.
