Editing and Proofreading

Publishing, printing or posting information with basic spelling and grammatical errors is the same as showing up to an important meeting in your pyjamas.

If you’ve invested your time, a budget for design and a lot of effort into a big document, it pays to have it polished by professionals.

Reasons you can’t trust spell check

  1. There’s a big difference between “their” and “there” and loads of similar-sounding words – but your computer doesn’t know it.
  2. Your computer is very likely to be American – and thinks that “organisation” should have a “z” where the “s” is.
  3. If you spell “program” like that on the first page and switch to “programme” on page three, your computer doesn’t care...

There’s no doubting that computers are incredibly intelligent, but there’s not yet one that matches the human ability to make sense of the written word.
