Whether you're an individual seeking service or a representative of a large publishing house, ProofreadNOW can get your work done. Here's how we do it in five easy steps:
- Our fleet of professional proofreaders work within our proofreading server (using its sophisticated algorithms) to receive, proofread, track and deliver your documents back to you quickly. Two editors thoroughly read and re-read your text and provide actual corrections for improvement. Real people, not software.
A Word on MS Word
Unlike what you have with your word-processing software, our human system works very well. If you think you can rely on MS Word's grammar and spell checkers, just type the following into a Word document:
The boy the girl love is here. or this: They returned to quickly.
Even though Word's grammar checker is perhaps the most expensively developed component of the product, it cannot spot those errors! See our white paper for more details on other things it misses. |
We apply special skills and rules developed over many years to the document.
- You submit your work for proofreading. (Demo) You use our Web site's browser to upload your file. You choose the level of editing, turnaround time, and genre (general, medical, legal, financial, or engineering). The file is securely encrypted and transmitted to our ultra-safe server, where it is processed by our proprietary copyediting engine.
- Two of our copyediting experts immediately begin processing your document as if it were a dirty car going into a carwash. When we're done, the document is sparkling and polished, accurate and mistake-free. We guarantee it.
- The server then notifies you. The server sends an e-mail completion message to you with a notification that the document is ready for retrieval. The message includes a secure link directly to the document for easy downloading. Keep in mind that you can pick up the document from anywhere, as long as you know your secure password. If you used a credit card for your account, your card is charged at the time the job is completed. For established business accounts, we provide semi-monthly billing on account. (For high-volume clients, we have developed private portals from their document processing pipelines to our server. We can do the same for you, if necessary.)
- You download the document. (Demo) You download the proofed document and decide on your own whether or not to accept each of our changes and suggestions. For MS Word documents, our changes are 'tracked' using Word's handy tracking tool. For specially marked PDF documents, you will see our suggestions in the document as annotations. For other documents, you receive a text-file list of our suggestions, and compare them to your original document, and apply only the suggestions you choose.
It's that simple! It's that fast! It's that good!
