Copy Editing Services
Professional Copy Editing Services
Professional copy editors transform draft document into compelling content that wins you more business.
When numerous people have contributed to a document, such as an article, blog, tender, proposal or report, you’ll know that the content needs a professional polish so that it reads as if written by one person. Other times, you may have written the content yourself and instinctively know that needs a good tidy. At these times, a professional copy editor will turn the content into gold.
Copy editors transform words into business winning content.
A copy editor does more than proofread your draft content. Proof Communications’ expert copy editors will turn your draft into professionally written content that flows, is grammatically correct and that is consistent in tone and style throughout.
Copy editing is the stage of the content production process between copywriting and proofreading. Copy editors do not write content from scratch. They review draft content written by someone else and make changes to it, sometimes rewriting or restructuring parts of the draft, to create a final document that is clear and succinct. They’ll proofread it too, as copy editors are usually great proofreaders.
But if your document is especially significant, such as an annual report, it’s always wise to have a proofreader complete a final proofread of your document after the copy editing is finished.

Why proofread and edit?
One typo can
cost thousands
Clients are amazed at the number of mark-ups our proofreaders return with their documents. In an annual report, we typically make 10 mark-ups a page. In a 100-page report, that’s 1,000 mark-ups.
Avoid
embarrassment
Although internal reviews and spell-checking programs can tackle the obvious issues, they don’t catch everything. Our clients seek our help because they believe in the value and appreciate the comfort they gain from our proofreading.
Meet the
highest standards
Our experienced proofreaders for annual reports are adept at handling lengthy, complex content. As professional proofreaders with 25 plus years’ experience as annual report proofreaders, we know the typical mistakes and oversights in stakeholder documents.
