Proofreading

Proofreading is distinct from copyediting in that it’s the final check of your document before you press ‘print’.

Proofreading is the task of checking that every single element is in its intended place, consistent with the house style or copyeditor’s style sheet (if applicable) and free of errors:

  • headers and footers

  • paragraph indents and line spacing

  • headings and their hierarchies

  • lists and their hierarchies

  • alignment of text and font size

  • references and citations, e.g. tables, figures, footnotes

  • image captions

  • duplicated or missing text

  • spelling, grammar and punctuation.
