Level 5: Proofreading of Galley Copy
Proofreading is the last step in the editorial cycle. Proofreaders will mark typographical and grammatical errors and return the manuscript to the author as a digital document. The author is responsible for implementing any changes. Please supply your galley copy and your original manuscript for our proofreaders to compare to determine if any errors were introduced in the publisher's typesetting process. The galley copy is usually provided by the publisher in PDF format. Original manuscripts must be in standard MS Word format. Payment in advance is required. There are no refunds for proofreading services. The author's cost is $7.00 per page/50-page minimum. At checkout, please increase the quantity in your cart to match the exact number of pages of your galley copy (based upon the formula that 250 words of galley copy = one page of proofreading). Thanks for choosing Written by a Pro.
