What does this module provide?

Every service can be selected on its own; we combine steps (e.g. reader's report → developmental editing → copyediting) into a roadmap for you.

Who is this service for?

In plain language—without literary jargon—here’s who usually chooses this service:

  • For those who say “My manuscript is done; I want a final spelling check before the publisher”
  • For those wanting a final safety net after copyediting
  • For those wanting a last pass before print or digital release
  • For catching small inconsistencies and formatting errors

How does the process work, and how long does delivery take?

Steps and typical timelines — the exact schedule is confirmed at project start based on manuscript length.

  1. 1. Final file

    You send a near-publication file after copyediting.

  2. 2. Final check

    Spelling, punctuation, small inconsistencies, and formatting are scanned.

  3. 3. Delivery

    You get the corrected file and a short note list. Typical turnaround: 3–7 business days.

  4. 4. Fast turnaround (optional)

    Faster delivery can be discussed for urgent launches.

Frequently asked questions

How is it different from copyediting?

Copyediting is deeper language work; proofreading is a final light pass.

Is it suitable for digital and print?

Yes. Delivery format (Word, PDF, etc.) is agreed at the start.

Can it be combined with other modules?

Yes. Many authors start with a reader's report or developmental editing; promotion modules are often added once the editorial process is settled.
